[issue412] ValueError: need more than 1 value to unpack

[Jack Repenning]

New submission from Jack Repenning <jack at netgate.net>:

Attempt to clone a repo results in python stack "ValueError: need more than 1 
value."

This is the first attempted clone from this machine (hg only just installed).  
This repo has been cloned successfully before, onto another Mac running same OS.  
I don't think the hg used in that case was identical (I think it was the beta 
that preceded abd9a05fca0b).

When the dust settles, there does not appear to be anything in the receiving 
file system; the expected top-level directory "summit" is not present.

The clone operation took quite a long time (I went to bed after an hour or so), 
but that may be legitimate, it's over a GB.

That repo is public, and you're welcome to try cloning it yourself.  See http://
www.red-bean.com/svnwiki/SVNSummitMercurial if you need write access or repo-
side internal/historical details.
