This implements all the "required" VC backend functions, and can do
updates, commits, logs and diffs. It's almost certainly riddled with
bugs, and I'd love to hear about each of them.
One big problem here is that VC only lets you commit a file at a time.
For CVS, that's not such a big deal, as long as it's easy to re-use
old commit messages (which it is). For Subversion, it's a very big
deal: you can only make transactions that affect a single file at a
time, which sort of misses the whole point. It basically means VC is
useless for anything but diff, log, and a meaningful mode line. Of
course, you can still do commits at the command line; that's what I do
with CVS.
I think VC's maintainer would be happy to see this restriction lifted.
But I want to first produce code that Subversion users can use with an
already released Emacs distribution. So for now I'm working within
the limitations of the released VC; once we've got something
functional, then we can start writing VC patches.
;;;; vc-svn.el --- a VC backend for Subversion
;;;; Jim Blandy <jimb@red-bean.com> --- July 2002
;;; Writing this back end has shown up some problems in VC: bugs,
;;; shortcomings in the back end interface, and so on. But I want to
;;; first produce code that Subversion users can use with an already
;;; released Emacs distribution.
;;;
;;; So for now we're working within the limitations of the released
;;; VC; once we've got something functional, then we can start writing
;;; VC patches.
;;; To do here:
;;; Provide more of the optional VC backend functions:
;;; - dir-state
;;; - mode-line-string, to show newly added files, modified props?
;;; see vc-cvs-mode-line-string
;;;
;;; VC passes the vc-svn-register function a COMMENT argument, which
;;; is like the file description in CVS and RCS. Could we store the
;;; COMMENT as a Subversion property? Would that show up in fancy DAV
;;; web folder displays, or would it just languish in obscurity, the
;;; way CVS and RCS descriptions do?
;;; To do in VC:
;;;
;;; Make sure vc's documentation for `workfile-unchanged-p' default
;;; function mentions that it must not run asynchronously, and the
;;; symptoms if it does.
;;;
;;; Fix logic for finding log entries.
;;;
;;; Allow historical diff to choose an appropriate default previous
;;; revision number. I think this entails moving vc-previous-revision
;;; et al into the back end.
;;;
;;; Should vc-BACKEND-checkout really have to set the workfile version
;;; itself?
