SVN client output

Hi there!

For now the command "svn up" writes some output *after*
the actual action. But such behaviour is not always convenient,
because certain operation may takes quite a lot of time,
for example, downloading (Adding to WC) a large file over
slow connection link.
Why not to display the simple progress bar for each downloaded item,
like it is done in commit process ("transmitting file data......")?

Moreover, if SVN client knows the size of the data, prior to actual
download, it may draw the accurate percents-like progress bar.

Can this proposal be an enhancement for SVN, ah?

Ragards,
Serge.

Thank you very much for your reply!
I'll check if such enhancement exits.

Serge.

I think it may already be filed as an enhancement.

In any case, a week or two ago, some new code was added to /trunk  
which allows for a progress-callback.  I think TortoiseSVN is  
planning to use that new API.  It would be nice to see the  
commandline client do the same.
