Manual creation of subversion repository via the project settings (Feature #454)
Description
When creating a new project it would be great if it was possible to manually create a new subversion repository. My suggestion would be to add a "create repo"-button in the repositories tab for the project.
I am aware of the reposman.rb script. The problem with this script is that if the project administrator fills the URL field in the repositories tab before the reposman.rb script have been run, the rebosman.rb script reports that a repository already have been created.
Example output from rebosman.rb script if URL field have been filled before reposman script has been run:treating project Test3
repository for project test3 already exists in Redmine
In short my feature request is to pretty much trigger the reposman.rb script from a button in the repository tab in the project setting. The site administrator would probably have to fill in some info about were the repositories should be created. But I guess the needed options are already specified in the needed options for the reposman script.

Holger and I have talked about moving a bunch of the reposman.rb script into the app itself. At that point it would be easy to allow manual creation of the repositories (or even automatic when the project is created).
Example output from rebosman.rb script if URL field have been filled before reposman script has been run:
I've set up reposman.rb on at least a dozen systems and still have a hard time remembering how it works. There is a lot of the behavior I'd like to change to make it "do the right thing".
