[issue?] MD5 checksums not verified for content in "text-base" -- may get corrupted data when using 'revert'
Hi.
put a file named "important.txt" in your repository
check it out to your local wording dir.
modify the "important.txt" locally.
==
be a "bad thing" and modifty something in
".svn/text-base/important.txt.svn-base" !
==
use svn revert.
you get the corrupted content from the text-base !
files in the .svn folder are read-only, unfortunately
this doesn't protect them from disk read errors or from
some recursive "search&replace" utilities for example.

i don't really understand your answer..
not only programmers use subversion,
but also ppl from the graphic and office department,
and they tend to do such mistakes.
so whats wrong with checking the MD5 value
(and the date) if its there already?
or what's an MD5 good for if it isn't checked?
and many utilities provide no option for excluding
folders. and as one might expect, even
microsoft visual studio is too dumb to -exclude-
the .svn subfolders when doing a search.

Wouldn't you just exclude ./.svn/* from being including in such utils.
Also personally I don't know of any programmers that do that, when I
change the copyright notice in my programs I don't use one, I use myself
at least that way it doesn't break.
