Nothing was droppd. The SVN client is just going to have a more efficient conversation with the server via HTTP when both client and server are running 1.7. > I a have written a WebDav client, mainly as an SVN client, and am > just girding my loins ready to embark on DeltaV support so I can > checkin new code. > > Is this code going to be obsolete before it is finished? It sounds like it was obsolete before you started :) But seriously, nothing has really changed. You can still do this. Note that SVN has never truly supported DeltaV though, so a generic DeltaV SVN client may or may not work. > Also, how will this effect thrid party clients such as Tortoise > and Smart SVN clients? TortoiseSVN uses the SVN client libraries. So it will just have a more efficient client/server communication. SmartSVN uses SVNKit, so it will depend on when they choose to adopt the simpler protocol. It is not like pre-1.7 clients are going to stop working though. All of the old protocol is still there and supported. -- Thanks Mark Phippard http://markphip.blogspot.com/
