And the entries file needs to remain there, too. A version-12 format file and a 3-byte entries file (containing just "12\n") are breadcrumbs for pre-1.7 clients. What's more, when we create a new working copy, we create those files, too. -- Brane -- Branko Čibej | Director of Subversion WANdisco // Non-Stop Data e. br...@wandisco.com
