Re: Implicit "." patch for subversion/client.

From: Karl Fogel <kfogel_at_galois.collab.net>
Date: 2001-03-06 15:14:01 CET

Thanks for the patch! Agree about the problems with the way main.c is
currently set up to handle implicit ".". I think Brian Fitzpatrick is
making changes related to this issue, among others, so will defer
handling of this patch to him. (Is that okay, Fitz?)
