Not if there are no files that had changes under the working directory
I ran the command in.

Do note that I want to see the revision number change even if it is
because of something committed to a branch somewhere.

Well right now, that "some, but not much" is 5 times more - and it
brings the total execution time of the command to the "too long to
wait" category on my laptop.

Ofcourse me having a slow laptop shouldn't probably matter that much
to you :) Though I intend on running svn on a Pentium 75 machine in a
not so long while.
