It's more than an optimisation: it doesn't suffer from any lock/race
problems, and it allows running svn diff on a file system to which one
donesn't have write access. Both these benefits apply if an empty
pristine copy were to be created at 'svn add foo.c' time as well.
Putting my code where my mouth is I append a patch for the single
empty file in the adm area approach. I think the idea of adding a
empty pristine copy at 'svn add' time may be even neater from a
conceptual point of view, but I haven't just finished a patch for
that!
* subversion/libsvn_wc/wc.h: Add SVN_WC__ADM_EMPTY_FILE and
svn_wc__adm_empty_file() to return the path to an empty file in the
adm area corresponding to a given file node.
* subversion/libsvn_wc/adm_ops.c (svn_wc_get_pristine_copy_path):
Return empty file path for added files not yet committed
* subversion/libsvn_wc/adm_files.c (init_adm): Create the emtpy file
in the adm area.
