Non-recursive svnlook

[Tim Armes <ta...@fr.imaje.com>]

Hi,

This is a feature request.  Would it be possible to add a non-recursive
option to svnlook ?  This option would be very useful for WebSVN, which
currently has to cache the tree layout of each revision, since calling
svnlook and then parsing the output takes too long.

The cache works nicely up to a point, but once you have a large repository
with many tags, the svnlook output can be tens of thousands of lines long,
resulting it immense caches!

Being able to demand just the contents of the path passed, and not the
contents of the sub-directories, would help the matter significantly.

Regards,

Tim

If WebSVN isn't using bindings, I have no sympathy. :-)
