Bug: KopiaUI v0.19.0: WebDAV: Cannot create repo nested in an existing collection/dir

tags: webdav, mkcol, dir, mkdir, directory, directories, collections, nested

Kopia does not seem to utilize mkcol to create sub ‘directories’ under existing ‘paths.’ EG:

https://$sub.$tld.internal:2443/dav/$usr/backup

This does not create /backup on the endpoint. The ‘create repository’ button does nothing.

The user has sufficient permissions to the root (eg: $usr/ exists but $usr/backup does not). The directory/collection must be manually created on the server/endpoint before creating the repository through the Kopia client.

This places undue intervention on the sysadmin before an end user can create a new repository under their existing directory/collection.
