OK, I have started this; I need to go out for a little bit, but can do some more later today. I have some questions, though, which I thought I'd float while I was away.

First, sorry for all those test commits. I had thought it was hard to set up an SVN server (http/webdav/etc) and then looked and realized that it works with a local filesystem about as easily as it possibly could, so I set up a local repository and finished testing, to figure out that, despite what the SVN book says, "$Revision$" is not a valid keyword. "$Rev$" is, and presumably the more official $LastChangedRevision$


I've committed changes in src, contrib, conf, and struts-faces. After realizing that a recursive "svn propset svn:keywords ..." turned on keywords for binary image files in the directory (and undoing for those), I took a more conservative approach to turning on keyword substitution. We have lots of problems with CVS corrupting image files at my day job (although that may be newline substitution instead of keyword substitution.)

Anyway, that's it for me for today. I haven't had a chance to look at doc, web, or xdocs to see if this needs to be applied to them. I'm reluctant to do anything to legacy, especially since probably any keywords in there should NOT be being expanded, if that's meant to be historical documentation.

If anyone finds anything weird or missing, please let me know. This was a good chance to really play around with SVN, and I have to say, i'm quite impressed.

Joe
