-<p>When using <a href="1.5#changelists">changelists</a> in the working copy, 
-so far <a href="http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=3348">there
-has been no convenient way</a> to refer to the set of files which
-do not belong to any changelist.  Subversion 1.8 allows such files to be referred
-to as members of the pseudo-changelist whose name is the empty string:</p>
-
-<pre>
-   $ svn status
-   M       iota
-   
-   --- Changelist 'mylist':
-   M       A/mu
-   $ svn status --changelist ""
-   M       iota
-   $ svn status --changelist mylist
-   
-   --- Changelist 'mylist':
-   M       A/mu
-   $
-</pre>
-
-<p>Since directories cannot be added to changelists, they will always be
-considered members of the <tt>""</tt> changelist.  Thus, when using the
-<tt>""</tt> changelist with an operation which defaults to being recursive
-(such as <tt>svn status</tt> or <tt>svn commit</tt>), it might be desirable
-to prevent the operation from recursing on such directories by passing
-<tt>--depth=empty</tt>.</p>
-
-<p>It is not possible to add items to the <tt>""</tt> pseudo-changelist;
-attempting to do so will cause the client library to raise an error:</p>
-
-<pre>
-   $ svn changelist "" iota  
-   svn: E125014: Target changelist name must not be empty
