svn-merge-repos: Unable to open a session

Just another issue with svn-merge-repos.pl:

# ~/dump/svn-merge-repos.pl -t total ghp:ghp latex:latex foobar:foobar tt:tt snafu:snafu code:code
svn: Unable to open an ra_local session to URL
svn: Local URL 'file://code' contains only a hostname, no path
Died at /root/dump/svn-merge-repos.pl line 274. 

Although the documentation of the script itself uses relative paths, svn does not appear to be satisfied by this information. Therefore, you have to use absolute paths. Please keep in mind that only local repositories can be merged that way.
