Hi,

It appears that authorized, legitimate wiki edits to random pages are causing
simultaneous commits to the 'index' page, which consists of spam in the
form of an SVN merge conflict.

Check `svn log index` and notice that quite a few recent commits follow this
pattern.

For example,
svn diff -r8490:8491

was a change via svnwiki to the http wiki page, with a logged in user, but this
also added spam to the index page in the same changeset.

This has happened several times over the past few days.  My working assumption
is that multiple changes are being batched into one update and piggybacked on
the logged-in user's commit.  Even though the index page requires
authentication, it still somehow gets through.  Perhaps the server is being
assaulted by spambots, enough to trigger a rare condition.

Can someone look into this?
