Re: : Subversion packages


Greetings, David Stacey!

> Regarding you second point:

My second point is that I can't tell from looking at a directory, if I'm
inside a working copy or not. Launching any additional tools to do simple
telling is not an option.
This is a major drawback for me, and I'm not upgrading.
