This is what I originally was thinking, just an asterisk there, rather
than a number.

Yeah, neat ideas.

That's basically the status quo. If you run 'svn status' right now
without a network, you get
[sussman@kepler:~/projects/svn/trunk]$ svn st -M
M 108 ( ? ) ./subversion/include/svn_ra.h
M 108 ( ? ) ./subversion/libsvn_ra_dav/ra_dav.h
Hmmm.... I sense a holy war coming. It seems like a lot of people
*really* want the network "off" by default. I wonder if anyone
besides Mo feels strongly the other way.
Here's the latest proposal, based purely on those who have been (ahem)
the most vocal in their opinions. Mo's ideas above aren't yet in
there. Still, just to keep everyone on the same page:
* Primary use: 'svn status'
The subcommand normally displays only locally modified files.
No network access is performed, and the display is simple.
% svn status
M subdir/foo.c
A subdir2/bar.c
D include/bloo.h
_M baz.h
* Secondary use: 'svn status --update" (-u)
This subcommand adds information; specifically, it shows revision
numbers on files that have impending updates. Network access is
required.
% svn status -u
_ 21 *23 25 subdir/moo.c
M 21 16 25 subdir/foo.c
A 20 15 25 subdir2/bar.c
_ 20 *24 25 subdir2/glorb.h
_ 20 *22 25 subdir2/blarg.h
D 21 12 25 include/bloo.h
_M 21 10 25 baz.h
* Maximum verbosity: 'svn status --verbose" (-v)
Add this switch to see every single entry. The -v switch
implies a -u switch.
% svn status -u
_ 21 8 25 subdir
_ 21 *23 25 subdir/moo.c
_ 21 21 25 subdir/gloo.c
M 21 16 25 subdir/foo.c
_ 20 19 25 subdir2
A 20 15 25 subdir2/bar.c
_ 20 *24 25 subdir2/glorb.h
_ 20 *22 25 subdir2/blarg.h
_ 21 15 25 include
_ 21 5 25 include/blorg.h
D 21 12 25 include/bloo.h
_ 21 3 25 README
_M 21 10 25 baz.h
