Hey Guido, 

some first feedback ... could you refactor the tests such that
e.g. changing the escaping of cmdline commands does not require
lots of changes to test_auth.py?  For example: 

    def test_export(self):
        auth = SvnAuth('foo', 'bar')
        u = svnurl_no_svn('http://foo.bar/svn', auth=auth)
        target = py.path.local('/foo')
        u.export(target)
        assert u.commands[0].endswith('svn export "http://foo.bar/svn"; "/foo" '
                                      '--username="foo" --password="bar"')

Apart from that this fails on windows, IMO it would be enough
to test for the presence of the username/password combo
and to do this from one place (and also the creation of "auth"
from place).  IOW: avoid redundancy and nitpicky output checking tests. 

For the slower functional test: could you maybe do some clever
extra setup/teardown and re-use e.g. test_urlcommand.py's 
TestURLCommandPath tests?  Some tests might not work, but then
it's maybe better to rework those.  If adding another base line
for Path APIs i wouldn't like to have to write tests at several
places for it.  IOW: integrate tests some more with existing
tests. 

hope this makes some sense,  I am probably quite busy the
next days. 

best, 

holger
