What order does subversion follow in walking file trees?
Hi all, I'm doing a long import on a code base, and have just gotten
curious as to how far along in the process I am. I thought that by
looking at the last line of the output, I'd get an idea as to where
in the directory I am, but then I noticed that subversion doesn't
seem to be walking the file hierarchy in alphabetical order. Is
there a canonical order that it always follows? If so, what is it?
Thanks,
Cem Karan

At at guess it's in the order the OS wants to give them
to you, i.e. the same order as "ls -f", which may or may not
be the order it appears bytewise in the directory.

Yay. OK, I can work around that, I think, assuming I can figure out
the python bindings. It'll be a bit of a hack, but it should work.
Thanks.

As far as I can tell, the order is pretty random. :-/
