Hi again,

With the latest fixes, I thought I'd follow up on this.

Fixed. After a few more experiments, I figured that I'd misunderstood
something- thanks to Philip for poking me harder. After many
inconsistent results, I found out that svn:sync-* properties are
transmitted via svn_ra_rev_proplist when a mirror steps in (... and
this results in svnsync being called).

Fixed.

As I pointed out, this is a wontfix.

I dug deeper, but it seems like I don't get this information over the
wire: to actually implement this, I'll have to fetch the file to which
the delta is being applied along with its md5sum. If this isn't worth
the trouble, it again becomes a wontfix.

> Text-delta-base-sha1

Wontfix.

I still haven't figured out if this is worth the trouble.

Fixed. On the refactored codebase, it just took me an hour to think
through this and fix it :)
