Re: [REQ] WC-only properties (local:)

Although I imagine seversal classes of users would find a use for this
feature, I think it would make libsvn_wc even more hackish than it
already is, and would generally complicate Subversion more than it's
worth.

But maybe there's a more general and more elegant solution. I'll
observe that people may want to have local changes to file contents, as
well as properties, without having them committed. So maybe what we
want is some kind of "commit mask" which you can drop into a working
copy (not sure how--a specially named file, a file in .svn, a directory
property) to prevent specific changes from being committed. Then only
the commit subsystem needs to be affected, not the entirety of
libsvn_wc.
