Where's that log method? on each dirent returned?
svn_dirent_t appears to only have:

kind, size, has_props, created_Rev, time, last_author... no log.

package _p_svn_dirent_t inherits Core, but it's not clear to me what
Core has really...

I'm trying to write a Model plugin for Catalyst to do basic browsing,
something along the lines of the Trac source browser. I could be
browsing a repo at http, svn://, or file://, but it's nothing to do with
working copies.

I can use Ra to get the uuid, root_rev..although, that would be nice in
SVN::Client too.

I'm currently using the SVN::Client to fetch the list of items in each
path. I'd like to get the last_log for each of the items too.

It's not too clear to me yet how to get all that info without making too
many calls to the repo.

I've love to..if I knew what the API really was without guessing. :-)
