Hi guys,

Some times ago I've created a patch to improve Trac error reporting when 
the repository can't be accessed. Currently the repository connection 
manager simply knows that there's no connector matching the requested 
repository type, and that's it. Therefore the error message is rather 
vague (the famous "Unsupported version control system ..." one).

The idea is to keep the connector around if we manage to find it, and 
use it for fetching a more detailed error message. Doing things that way 
minimizes the API changes. In fact, the only change is that a connector 
can now return a negative priority, indicative of an error.

I think that having this in 0.11 will help people installing Trac for 
the first time to have have better guidance and more hints when there's 
a problem with e.g. the Subversion bindings...

See http://trac.edgewall.org/ticket/6796 for patch and further details.
