Just not today. :-) For some of it, it currently can. It could, for example, compute the MD5 of a given checkout for you. That, however, requires having a copy of the repo, which is missing in your case :(. All the code is in place for doing checkouts as well, the bits just need to be plugged together and added to boatloads of error handling, prompting the user (something the lib-level code doesn't want to have to do) in case of overwrites, etc. There's more work in making "how to handle case ...." decisions than there is actual coding there :/. -- ----- stephan beal http://wanderinghorse.net/home/stephan/ http://gplus.to/sgbeal "Freedom is sloppy.
