Please separate fixes of core programs/scripts from fixes of the tests
(because the former have a much higher chance of being accepted).

But see these threads first:

Here a few comments:

These are unnecessary: RHS of an assignment does not undergo word splitting.

These changes protect *only* against space-in-name, but not
random-special-character-in-name. The proper fix is to change the quoting from

  test_expect_success "..." "... $svnrepo ..."

to

  test_expect_success '...' '... "$svnrepo" ...'
