Hey all, After my recent rounds of work, it now appears that we're "ready" to move to in-database properties.
If you weren't aware, we record properties into the old-style files *and* into the database. There is a TEST_DB_PROPS define in wc/props.c that will test/assert that these properties are in lock-step each time we try to read properties. Except for a couple probably-minor failures in upgrade_tests, the entire test suite now passes when this define is set. Thus, we should be ready to being reading props only from the database, and stop writing out the old-style props files. To that end, I'm going to bump us from today's "format 16" to format 17 some time this week. This will be an auto-upgrade process, so there will be no need to use 'svn upgrade'. f17 will also include the introduce of .svn/pristine/ for the work Julian is doing. Please let me know if you have any questions/concerns. Cheers, -g
