Also I'd like to mention John Mehr, who's work on a "lightweight, dependency-free, BSD licensed program to pull source using the svn protocol" (couldn't say it better, so I use his words :-)). Hope this will make it into ports soon and in the long run even to base!

Thank you for the kind words.  If all goes well (I'm still wearing my "Crown of Naive Optimism") I should have something ready for show-and-tell in the next week or so and I'll be submitting it as a new port soon after that.

John, Pullin' for you man!

If you make progress, please give a shout and I'll note it in this page:

Hello,

I think I've got all of the protocol issues sorted out as good as they'll probably get.  I can't get the exact file permissions from the get-file requests -- it only lets me know which ones are executable.  Setting executables to 0755 and non-executables to 0644 would work for all files in my copy of /usr/src except for /usr/src/usr.bin/lex/mkskel.sh (0744) and /usr/src/usr.sbin/pkg_install/tkpkg (0754).  Since they're both executable for root, unless there's an issue, we could probably let it slide and assign them 0755 permissions.

All I have left at this point is to add support for command line configuration options, add comments, tidy everything up, get it to conform to the "man style" guidelines and test it against a remote repository.
