svn:keywords
Hi,
is it possible to have keywords expanded when viewing the file from a
web browser?
I can see the keywords in my wc and also with "svn cat", but not in the
web browser.

No, the difference is that keyword processing is performed by the
client, not the server. When you're accessing mod_dav_svn via the web
browser, the web browser is the client, and it doesn't know to do the
keyword processing.

Trac definetly not - just tested. But I mean generic mod_dav_svn. If
"svn cat" expands the keywords, what is the difference?

Ahh: If I do a "svn cat", the client issues a PROPFIND to the server,
while a ordinary web browser simply GETs the file.
This must be the difference: the svn client speaks DAV, and the web
browser plain HTTP only.

It is upto the repository browser software (ViewVC, etc) to make it happen.
I don't think ViewVC does it now. I vaguely remember one repo browser doing
it, but I can't recall which one (not sure whether it was Trac?).
