Darcs-style interactive commits

[Remko Troncon <pu...@el-tramo.be>]

Hi,

I was wondering if there were plans to add a flag to 'svn commit',  
that would cause svn to ask for every change in your working copy  
whether or not you want to add it to your commit. Darcs does this,  
and we have found this to be extremely useful for a number of things:
- It is a good last-minute check that you are not committing stuff  
that you don't want
- It allows you to quickly commit a fix while you are working on  
something else in your working copy
- It allows you to leave in things like debug printf() messages when  
committing, and you just have to revert afterwards to get rid of them.
- ...

cheers,
Remko

I believe that URL should be:

  http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ReadMsg?listName=users&msgNo=55191

Well not to just plug my own script, but I recently wrote a wrapper
that allowed you to delete the filenames from your log message that
you did not want to commit.  You can find my initial version on the
mailing list archives at:
http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ReadMsg?listName=users&msgNo=53704

Or get it from my svn repository (It's a slow connection and a slow
server, but it is a small perl script) at:
http://troyjr.hopto.org/projects/svn/svnci/trunk

Let me know if it helps, it would make fell all warm and fuzzy inside!

Troy
