Weird auto-props behavior

["Cabanero, Christian" <ca...@amazon.com>]

Hello,

I've been observing some strage behavior with use of auto-props, specifically for keyword expansion.  In my ~/.subversion/config file I have the following:

[miscellany]
enable-auto-props = yes

[auto-props]
*.java = svn:keywords="Id Date Author Revision LastChangedDate"

All of the keywords now work for java files *except* for Id.  In my file I have the text $Id$ expecting it to expand but it does not.  All the other keywords do work however.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Christian

Date and LastChangedDate are effectively the same, IIRC.  If you removed 
  Date, you'd see LastChangedDate fail as well.

The problem is with the quotes you have there;  the autoprops entry 
should read:

*.java = svn:keywords=Id Date Author Revision LastChangedDate

Otherwise svn is looking for keywords named:

"Id
Date
Author
Revision
LastChangedDate"

(note how the quotes get pulled into the "real" keywords).
