Auto-props are only used by Subversion when a file is first added, so
I think Dumpfile::_add_handler() makes sense.
I thought about this a little further. As far as I understand,
auto_props only work on the filename. So the _add_handler is the
correct place. If we also want to filter/check the content of the
file, then we must find a good place in Node.pm. I would also suggest
to start with the _add_handler and its derivates like share without a
source, restore, recover and so on.
What sort of content inspection are you thinking of? We are already
setting the mime-type to application/octet-stream if VSS considers the
file "binary".
Thanks, it's a good start. :) I can probably knock this out when I
get some free time.
The main problem for me is, that it takes me hours to write a simple
line in PERL. Opposed to what is written in all its documentation,
perl is not an easy language. It might be powerful, but not easy to
read and to code.
Perhaps I will play a little further. I just need to have an idea, how
to evaluate the auto-props-pattern from the hash against the filename.
I won't disagree with that. Even when you understand the syntax it still
takes a lot of use before your start "thinking in Perl". I chose it for
its cross-platform ubiquity and string manipulation capabilities, but as
I've said I would probably go with C# if I had it to do over again, now
that Mono is very well established on Linux.
