Trygve,

I'm not sure whether you also red discussions last week.

You are right: list-files can be solved with checkout. But lets take a huge
project (for example 10.000) files. You want to see the list of the files in
the top directory only. I estimate you don't want to checkout the entire
repository because that might take a very-very long time.
