[RFC] Issue 2967: XML Output Format
Hi All,
I have been looking at existing xml-aware outputting subcommands
and I have come up with a suggested XML format of:
<diff type="summary">
<entries>
<entry>
<path />
<action>[ |A|D|M]</action>
<property>[ |M]</action>
</entry>
.....
</entries>
</diff>
I would like someone to comment on this so we can make a decision and
run with it.
Take care,
Jeremy

I thought Jeremy's recent reply was a good place for top-posting,
actually.
Bottom-posting is not always preferable. Which way is more
appropriate really depends on context (in this mail, for example,
bottom-posting certainly makes more sense). See also

We like to bottom-post on this list. Since you will be around a lot
more now, I thought I'd point it out.
I think the structure is fine. If you have not done so already I
would look at the similar commands (list, log, status) and try to
reuse elements and terminology where possible. I do not have our XML
output memorized, but what you proposed seems right.

Mark,
Thanks for the tip. I did forget to add it in. What do you think
of the structure I'm proposing?
Take care,
Jeremy

I know, my point was the motivation (for you) was to expose that info
you cannot get from the current non-XML output. So I just wanted to
remind you that you left that out of your sample.

Mark,
Actually, this is for "--xml" support for "svn diff --summarize"
but yes, you are correct that I failed to add that attribute to the
path. Path should be:
<path kind="[dir|file]">PATH</path>
Hopefully this helps clarify things.
Take care,
Jeremy

You were doing this task to add support for kind=dir|file. I do not
see that in your XML.
