Hi Stefan,

Progress... you were definitely on the right track.  I haven't gotten the 
broken one to work, but I got the working to break in exactly the same way. 
When I create that registry key (RepoBrowserTrySVNParentPath) on the good 
one and set it to 0, it stops failing over to GET and I just get the server 
response in the repo browser window, whatever that response is (right now 
it just says the server doesn't support DAV, no more HTTP 500 since I took 
DAV out of the "/" location). So the behavior is now identical, but 
intentionally broken on one client and stuck that way on the other.

So I haven't looked at the code, but I presume it defaults to enabling that 
option (if that's what it's supposed to do when the key doesn't exist). 
Somehow that isn't functioning on Windows Server 2016 (the only meaningful 
difference I can figure). Any idea what might interfere with that 
functionality?

Thanks,
Joe
