+ * r1461760
+   Additional fix related to issue #4340, "filenames containing \n corrupt
+   FSFS repositories"
+   Justification:
+     This change makes libsvn_repos block filenames containing control
+     characters. Control characters in filenames have always been rejected
+     by libsvn_client, but client-side software bypassing libsvn_client
+     could still commit such filenames. Control characters in filenames
+     can cause problems not just in FSFS but also in dump files, unidiff,
+     and possibly elsewhere. It is a good idea to make the client and
+     server consistent.
+     See discussion linked from issue #4340 for more information.
