As a new changelist (implemented under the hood as 'svn info --cl svn:shallow') or depth case (extending svn_depth_t; not sure this can be done), or directly as an svn_boolean_t only_shallow parameter to svn_client_info3()? > See also http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=3910 > which is about making 'svn status' show this information. > If svn info had a better way to show this information we don't need > status to do it. svn status --shallow Instead of showing the non-infinity depth value, simply including only the non-infinity-depth'd items inthe output might suffice? Note though that 'svn status --shallow --depth=empty' makes sense --- it means "Don't recurse into those non-infinity-depth items that you're about to show me" :-).
