I like the ideas, like Stefan I do not understand why the view info could not be in the property. Also I assume his suggestions on how the property would be looked for matches what you intended. My main comment was to ask if you have seen this? http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/subversion/trunk/tools/client-side/svn-viewspec.py?view=markup It includes some additional functionality that should be rolled into your design. I think what you design adds is a pretty workable idea for how we could put this into the checkout API and command. -- Thanks Mark Phippard http://markphip.blogspot.com/
