PATCH: svn2cl lists too many filenames

[Chris Moore <do...@gmail.com>]

I've been trying to use svn2cl to generate Changelogs, but it keeps
including the full path to files which are outside the directory of
interest.

I made an ugly patch which works around the problem by pre-processing
the XML data before the XSL runs.  See here:

  http://dooglus.rincevent.net/synfig/svn2cl.html

There's a 'TODO' in the .xsl script which suggests this has been
noticed before.  Unfortunately I don't know enough about XSL to do the
patch properly.

Feedback please?

Thanks.

Chris.

Attached is a patch that fixes the issue. Paths outside of the directory
of interest are not mentioned in the ChangeLog if --strip-prefix is
specified (svn2cl.sh does this automatically).

The downside is that the files are also not mentioned if the directory
in which you ran svn2cl got renamed.

This patch and probably some others will be in the next release that
should be released soonish.
