Properties-Question
Hello!
I have done:
svn propset copyright '(c) 2004 by foobar' my_file.txt
and than commit the file. All fine.
In the file I have written "$copyright$", but this property will not replace
with the text "(c) ....".
Can't svn replace only its own keywords?

There are no custom keywords (yet). There's a patch-in-progress for
this feature in svn 1.1. But svn 1.0 only understands 5 specific
keywords.

Nope, it can't. Also, remember that you'd have to propset svn:keywords
with "copyright" in it too.
There are plans for Subversion to be able to replace any keywords with
property values.

That's correct. Only the keywords listed in the documentation (book) are
supported currently. There is an outstanding patch which will make it possible
to support user defined keywords, but it is still under review and requires
additional changes to fully support them.
