I added this note, with a bit more detail and a link to this thread, in r1696722. > I would still prefer just deleting the script. > Anyone sufficiently interested can find it in our repository history. I deleted it in r1696742. The note will be useful to anyone who resurrects the latest (deleted) version. Other observations: We first included this script in the 1.8.0 release, and listed it in the 'CHANGES' file as a "new w/c subtree duplication tool". Oops! This script is mentioned as a temporary solution in issue #2884, http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=2884 "Implement 'svn detach' for copying partial working copies". - Julian
