Re: SV: Accessing different revs via Apache?

If you're going where I THINK you're going with this. :) (IE automated
rev control of web pages) Instead of relying on a SPECIFIC rev in the
repository (Don't forget, rev numbers are NOT per file but basically per
check in.) Instead create a tag and use THAT to always
checkout/access. So you're URL is just
http://repos.domain.com/tag/<your tag>/<filename>. That way, you're NOT
dependent on a feature that the developers say WILL change, instead,
you're using a feature that is already a part of SVN and won't
(HOPEFULLY!) ever change.
