---------------------------------------
+1 to merge to 1.3.x (also, yay test!)
> Badmatch error if _replicate target starts with slash

> Key: COUCHDB-317
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-317
> Project: CouchDB
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Replication
> Affects Versions: 0.9.1
> Environment: svn r761188
> Reporter: Brian Candler
> Assignee: Joan Touzet
> Priority: Trivial
> Fix For: 1.3
>
> Attachments: replicate-slash-fix.patch, replicate-slash-fix-v2.patch
>
>
> Giving a replication source or target which starts with a slash gives an
> Erlang barf error. (The wiki at http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/Replication
> said that this slash was necessary. I will fix the wiki, but the error is
> still unsightly)
> $ curl -X POST -d '{"source":"/foo","target":"/bar"}'
> http://127.0.0.1:5984/_replicate
> {"error":"case_clause","reason":"{error,{{{badmatch,{error,illegal_database_name}},\n
> [{couch_rep,init,1},\n {gen_server,init_it,6},\n
> {proc_lib,init_p,5}]},\n
> {child,undefined,\"7898c2bfbbcf8adbb305371e6c3c949e\",\n
> {gen_server,start_link,\n [couch_rep,\n
> [\"7898c2bfbbcf8adbb305371e6c3c949e\",\n
