One other thing nobody seemed to mention was that svn_subst_keywords_t
is not allocated by the library. It is allocated by the client prior to
passing it to svn_subst_build_keywords. It would have been better to
make it an opaque data structure and allocate it ourselves and not
reveal it's structure the clients directly. Unfortunately, we didn't do
that.
