svn checkout reports incorrect version numbers
I am running svn version 1.4.0 (r21228) on SUSE Linux 10.2 for the
client and server.
Below is a diagram of my project:
Path Version
----------------------------
project/trunk 1
project/trunk 2
project/trunk 3
project/branches/1.0 4
project/branches/1.0 5
project/trunk 6
Check out the trunk and the branch using the following commands. Both
report that the checked out version is 6. When the branch version is
really version 5.
svn checkout file:///usr/svn/repos/project/trunk dir1
svn checkout file:///usr/svn/repos/project/branches/1.0 dir2
Is this the correct behavior? This is confusing to users when they
checkout the branch and see the wrong version reported by the checkout
command.
Thanks for any help,
Kevin

Yes, it is correct. The revision is unique for the whole repository.
When listing the repository contents, you may see the most recent
revision number that was created in those paths, but the highest
revision number is the current one, regardless of where you go in the
repository. The subversion guide explains this nicely
(http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.4/svn.basic.in-action.html#svn.basic.i
n-action.revs).

Correct behavior. You're probably expecting 'Last Change Rev'.
If you do an 'svn info' on the url or in the workspace for a file or
dir, you'll see:
Revision: 6
Last Changed Rev: 5
Revision is the Repository revision at the time of the check-out. Last
Changed Rev can be different for every file in the sub-tree that you
checked out (and will be less than or equal to the Repository revision
number.)
