[PATCH] Incorrect(?) documentation of output from list --verbose
* ch03.xml
Assuming "svn help list" is accurate, the output does not include a
column indicating the presence of properties; remove that from the book.
While we're at it, change "updated" to "modified", since we're talking
about changes on the server, not in the working copy.

Gaaah. I read the patch backwards. Note to self: do not try and reply
to mail on one machine while upgrading another.
Applied in revision 7649.
Sorry for the confusion.

The book claims that there are 5 columns:
The columns tell you if a file has any properties ("P" if it does, "_"
if it doesn't), the revision it was last updated at,...
My patch eliminates mention of the first column, which doesn't seem to
exist.

What version of svn are you using? Using HEAD, 'svn help list' doesn't
say anything at all about properties:
$ svn help list
list (ls): List directory entries in the repository.
usage: list [TARGET...]
List each TARGET file and the contents of each TARGET directory as
they exist in the repository. If TARGET is a working copy path, the
corresponding repository URL will be used.
The default TARGET is '.', meaning the repository URL of the current
working directory.
With --verbose, the following fields show the status of the item:
Revision number of the last commit
Author of the last commit
Size (in bytes)
Date and time of the last commit
Valid options:
-r [--revision] arg : revision X or X:Y range. X or Y can be one of:
NUMBER revision number
"{" DATE "}" revision at start of the date
"HEAD" latest in repository
"BASE" base revision of item's working copy
"COMMITTED" last commit at or before BASE
"PREV" revision just before COMMITTED
-v [--verbose] : print extra information
-R [--recursive] : descend recursively
--username arg : specify a username ARG
--password arg : specify a password ARG
--no-auth-cache : do not cache authentication tokens
--non-interactive : do no interactive prompting
--config-dir arg : read user configuration files from directory ARG
Could you have an old copy of svn?
