There seems to be a bug in TortoiseSVN 1.14.6.
I right-click on some directory, select "TortoiseSVN -> Repo-browser" and enter "svn://MyServer/MyRepo" (the repository is at revision 60469)
In the repo browser, I right-click on the top level item (svn://MyServer/MyRepo), select "Show log", and in the log I click "Show all"
In the search edit, I enter "MyFeature"; at revision 60249 I find an entry with the comment "Deleted branch after reintegration: MyFeature)
I right-klick on the previous revision (60248) and select "Browse repository"; in the top right corner of new repo browser I see "Revision: 60248"
I navigate to svn://MyServer/MyRepo/branches/MyFeature, right-click on this item and select "Show log"
Now I get an error message
    Want to go offline? There has been a problem to contact the server. Do you want to see the cached data instead?
    Please understand that the cached data may be outdated, incomplete or even misleading due to incomplete history data.
    The error was: URL 'svn://MyServer/MyRepo/branches/MyFeature' non-existent in revisioni 60469 (this is the head revision of the repository)
    [ ] Make this the default
    Offline for now, Permanently offline, Retry, Cancel
This used to work until TortoiseSVN 1.14.5.
In Windows Command prompt, the command line "svn log svn://MyServer/MyRepo/branches/MyFeature@60248" works fine.

This looks very similar to the issue described in this thread:  https://groups.google.com/g/tortoisesvn/c/N2bp4hyLRI8 (see the message from 27 feb 2024). That turned out to be a problem with checking the repository for the HEAD revision using the URL of the deleted branch, fixed in r29682.

Can you check if the issue is resolved in the nightly build?

Kind regards,
Daniel
