- * The subdir names on the left side are relative to the directory on
- * which this property is set.
+ * The format is a series of lines, each in the following format:
+ *   [-r REV] URL[@PEG] LOCALPATH
+ * LOCALPATH is relative to the directory having this property.
+ * REV pins the external to revision REV.
+ * URL may be a full URL or a relative URL starting with one of:
+ *   ../  to the parent directory of the extracted external
+ *   ^/   to the repository root
+ *   /    to the server root
+ *   //   to the URL scheme
+ * The following format is supported for interoperability with
+ * Subversion 1.4 and earlier clients:
+ *   LOCALPATH [-r PEG] URL
+ * The ambiguous format 'relative_path relative_path' is taken as
+ * 'relative_url relative_path' with peg revision support.
+ * Lines starting with a '#' character are ignored.
