Oops!
Let me just say that all those people who said this interface was bad
were right, and I was wrong :-). In good company, but still wrong.
A lesson for the future, maybe:
I think our confusion was that overloading `-r' worked okay for
`propset', since you could never change a property at a specified
revision of a versioned object -- that wouldn't make sense. But then
we carried it over into proplist and propget, where it *would* make
sense to use -r with a versioned object. And since the overload
doesn't work for proplist and propget, we shouldn't have used it for
propset either.
Should we put the current 'propfoo -r' functionality under
'revpropfoo' or `rpropfoo' instead?
-K
