Well yes, and so does eclipse. TortoisCVS uses the Web interface to get a list of modules, given a :pserver string.

CVS servers sometimes implement the cvs get -c command, or the cvs ls command. My suspicion is that Eclipse and ViewCVS and others first check out the CVSROOT module (which exists in every top level folder, and then parses the modules or entries files or something. (However, none of these work for SF CVS repos.)

An interesting question.

Using SVN it is just:

svn ls file:///usr/local/svnrepos/ProjectName

branches/
tags/
trunks/

or to see inside this std layout

svn ls file:///usr/local/svnrepos/ProjectName/trunk

etc.

Some SF repositories are migrating to Subversion. The Eclipse plugin for subversion is called Subclipse (I think.)

how does the web interface find out?  there must be a way.  it is the
tags and branches that you want a list of.
