I second that.

I put psvn.el a long time ago in the subversion repository.
At the moment I don't have the time to follow the subversion mailing
lists. Nor do I read the commit mails of the other project members.

I know, that many people are happy users of my emacs mode.

I lost the access (password) to my web.de account. I asked Karl to
change it to a valid address on 25th May. He told me, he couldn't
change it. So it stayed the old (no longer usable web.de address).

Can someone update my account information?

Do I have the access rights to edit the COMMITTERS file?

Sorry Erik, I didn't receive that mail until now. Is it possible to
forward the xsteve@tigris.org mails to my valid email? That way I
would get such hints earlier.

Regarding the wrong formatting of the log messages:
* I use the hyphen formatting for my personal projects. So it is kind
  of a hardwired habit.
* I didn't use the hyphen in r11476, r11370, ...
* I just forgot about it in r11672 - sorry. I will fix it.

Please tell me, if the following log messages comply with your standards:

Some patches from Richard Lewis <rpil+psvn.el@rtf.org.uk>

* trunk/contrib/client-side/psvn/psvn.el:
  (svn-status-use-history) Report the error when we chose a non-directory
  (svn-status-mouse-find-file-or-examine-directory): New command, bound
   to mouse-2: just like svn-status-find-file-or-examine-directory
  (svn-status-mark-deleted): New command ,bound to '* D' to mark files
   scheduled for deletion (similar to '* A' and '* M')
  (svn-status-mark-deleted): New command W bound to '* *' to mark files
   modifed and files scheduled for addition and files scheduled for
   deletion
  (svn-status-bury-buffer) Bury the *svn-log* buffer

  Moved "Mark" and "Unmark" to the "Mark/Unmark" submenu
  Modified a few docstrings
------------------------------------------------------------------------
r11476 | xsteve | 2004-10-18 21:35:38 +0200 (Mon, 18 Oct 2004) | 4 lines

The files are now highlighted, when the mouse is over them.

* trunk/contrib/client-side/psvn/psvn.el:
  (svn-add-face): Add a mouse-face to highlight the string, if the mouse is over it.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
r11370 | xsteve | 2004-10-13 22:41:00 +0200 (Wed, 13 Oct 2004) | 4 lines

Fixed another bug in the new fast commit functionality

* trunk/contrib/client-side/psvn/psvn.el:
  The last fix does not work very well. Added another fix to improve the situation.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
r11369 | xsteve | 2004-10-13 22:38:25 +0200 (Wed, 13 Oct 2004) | 6 lines

Fixed a bug in the new fast commit functionality

* trunk/contrib/client-side/psvn/psvn.el:
  (svn-status-parse-commit-output): Skip the leading directory,
  if the commit was sent for the . entry in the *svn-status* buffer

------------------------------------------------------------------------
r11368 | xsteve | 2004-10-13 22:15:54 +0200 (Wed, 13 Oct 2004) | 6 lines

Added a popup menu on mouse-3

  (svn-status-popup-menu): new function.
  (svn-status-face-set-temporary-during-popup): helper function for svn-status-popup-menu.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
r11245 | xsteve | 2004-10-05 21:05:05 +0200 (Tue, 05 Oct 2004) | 14 lines

Speedup for svn commit operation, because svn status is not run after a commit.

* trunk/contrib/client-side/psvn/psvn.el:
  (svn-status-line-info->set-propmark, svn-status-line-info->set-localrev,
  svn-status-line-info->set-lastchangerev): new functions to allow the
  modification of the svn-status-info data structure.
  (svn-status-update-with-command-list): New function to apply a list of changes
  to svn-status-info and the *svn-status* buffer.
  (svn-status-annotate-status-buffer-entry): Helper function to apply one
  change in svn-status-update-with-command-list.
  (svn-status-parse-commit-output): New function that is used to parse the
  output of svn commit. That function generates a list that is usable for
  svn-status-update-with-command-list.
  (svn-status-goto-file-name): Improved performance for that function.

Stefan.
