Ok, so what I get from that is that it's not a direct in feature in a clean
svn installation but something which can be achieved with neon?
And to comment on epg who said I meant that the information was visible when
committing, I must emphasize that I really did mean to update. I just tried
it out on the repository I wrote earlier and it really is when updating.
What I'm really curious about is how to achieve this with my server, because
this could really be quite informative at times and I can't seem to find
anything with google - not that I expect a guide, but just to know if I'm
correct with me understanding that it's by this neon-thingy?
Thanks for your reply, it is very much appreciated.
