Julian Foad commented on SVN-4889:
----------------------------------

I can confirm that's the kind of mechanism I mean, and those are the kind of reasons for doing it now.

> [dev@ thread|https://lists.apache.org/thread/qw2cngzc22kvzw8ro77jfqpoz9nhm3fx] "[PATCH] Sketch of per-user/per-wc config for pristines-mode"
> The #SVN-525 feature (aka WCs without pristines, pristines-on-demand, bare-WCs) needs a per-WC configuration capability.
> The thread linked above sketches one way of going about such a configuration. Other ways are possible too.
> This is not strictly needed for the first release or "minimum viable product" (MVP) of the #525 feature, as the feature can be activated by upgrading the selected WCs to 1.15 format and will default to remaining disabled for other WCs.
> It MIGHT be good to add the low level flagging mechanism now, because that might help any future new WC capability to co-exist in a 1.15 format WC. Otherwise any such new capability would have to assume that pristines-on-demand is always enabled in a 1.15 format WC, and so have to bump to another new format to make it optional. It is not clear which would be more effort.
