Meaning of attributes in .svn/entries
Hello
I'm wondering if anyone could give me a quick explanation about the
difference between commited-rev and revision in an entry in the
.svn/entries file?
I'm working with some code that extracts these two for use in the build
process, but nobody here is entirely sure about which one they really
wanted, because nobody is entirely sure what the difference between them
is.. :)
I'm not subscribed to the list at this location, so please Cc: me your
reply. Thanks.

Be aware that the *safe* way to do this is to run "svn info".
Peeking in .svn directories is definitely a little dodgy as far as
compatibility guarantees are concerned.
Plus, "svn info" gives more user-oriented labels:
revision => Revision:
committed-rev => Last Changed Rev:
Max.

Committed-rev is the "last revision in which the file changed".
Revision is the "current working revision of the file."

Not sure it is a safe bet to use this information by looking in the
.svn file. Why not just do an "svn info" to get the information you
want?
