I have the enthusiasm:-) More importantly this is an opportunity to learn more about the test program. Is it possible, through some incantation that I've overlooked, to run the cmdline tests against an arbitrary svn binary? Or, perhaps a better question is: how do you verify that a test fails on an old version and passes on a new version? (I happen to have 1.8 installed so I'd like to verify that my new test fails on the 1.8 client and passes on 1.13.) Thanks, Nathan
