Subversion 0.20 released.

From: Michael Price <mprice_at_atl.lmco.com>

I am pleased to announce that another interim release of Subversion is
now available. You can grab release 0.19 at the following location:

   http://subversion.tigris.org/files/documents/15/3368/subversion-0.20.tar.gz

The MD5 checksum for this release is a7bcec36f73bdb4a519795e45dadf823.

Please note the following new standard for interim release compatibility:

   "Before 1.0, we require only that each interim release be compatible
    with the one before it. For example, a 0.20 server must work with
    both 0.19 and 0.21 clients (and, obviously, a 0.20 client as well),
    but may be incompatible with a 0.18 client (though gratuitous
    incompatibility should be avoided whenever possible, of course).
    Patch levels don't count: 0.20.1, 0.20.2, etc, must be compatible
    with 0.19.*."

Also note that because the ra_svn protocol is new it does NOT fall under
the above constraints. Version 0.20 ra_svn clients and servers are NOT
backwards compatible.

This release was tested against Apache httpd 2.0.44, which is available
at this location:

  http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi

==========

Version 0.20.0 (released 20 Mar 2003, revision 5410, branches/release-0.20)

  User-visible changes:
  * new compatibility rule: require only that each interim release be
                            compatible with the one before it (see HACKING)
  * ra_svn is still new so above rule doesn't yet apply
    (i.e. 0.20 over ra_svn is NOT compatible with previous releases)
  * merge infers the target path (see book chapters 4 & 8)
  * merge continues in presence of missing target file
  * merge's add notifications are no longer duplicated
  * commands can be safely interrupted (Ctrl-C)
  * --encoding global default in ~/.subversion/config
  * new option --editor-cmd
  * begin multi-release transition to escape binary properties over DAV
  * misc performance improvements

  Developer-visible changes:
  * RA vtable functions take pool argument
  * svn-config --includes path fixed
  * uuid at creation now complete
  * start having test failures throw exceptions rather than return errors
  * test suite option --cleanup with --verbose being default mode
  * continued diff library development
  * minor revprop hook changes
  * bug fixes: no diff on binary files (#1019), consistent error messages
    (#1181), version numbers in hook scripts (#1182), win98 codepage (#1186)
