It looks like we've lost the warning behavior (the ENTRY_NOT_FOUND
case above), because we don't test 'err' on every iteration of the
loop anymore.

We can't call svn_handle_warning() inside svn_client_update2(),
obviously. I see that the new code uses the notifier func to warn
about unversioned items (see later comments regarding that), but the
new behavior is surprising:

  $ touch unversioned_but_existing
  $ ls unversioned_but_existing
  unversioned_but_existing
  $ ls unversioned_and_nonexistent
  ls: unversioned_and_nonexistent: No such file or directory
  $ svn st -v README COPYING
            12471 12286 maxb README
            12471 8016 kfogel COPYING
  $

  $ ### Okay, try to update some targets explicitly. ###

  $ svn up README unversioned_but_existing COPYING unversioned_and_nonexistent
  At revision 12471.
  At revision 12471.
  At revision 12471.
  At revision 12471.
  $

That's rather odd :-). Even unversioned files -- both existing and
totally vaporous ones! -- report being at r12471.

When you say "actual revision" there, do you mean last committed rev
for that path, or the revision to which the '*revision' parameter was
resolved? (I'm pretty sure the latter, but maybe the doc string
should be explicit about it.)

Is this something you consider undesirable, or is it just an
enhancement to be left for later?

Do we really want to clear all errors besides WC_NOT_DIRECTORY here?

I would expect the reverse logic: clear a certain specific set of
errors -- those that are legitimate reasons for skipping a file, such
as that the item is unversioned -- and return all other errors.

Even if we want the update to continue, and do the best it can despite
errors, wouldn't it be good to save up the errors and return them at
the end somehow? Just tossing them seems reckless.

Regarding notification: if we examined the type of error, we could use
it to drive a more informative notification. For example, would we
want to use slightly different notifications for files that exist but
are not versioned, versus those that don't exist and are unversioned?
We would currently have to overload 'svn_wc_notify_state_unknown' for
that, but I wouldn't mind adding another notification code in order to
distinguish them.

Or maybe it's okay to simply use the same 'unknown' code for both. My
main concern is that, currently, we have no idea what the error was,
and neither does the user.

In any case, looking at the above code, and comparing with the test
results I quoted earlier, I'm baffled as to how it could be reporting
"At revision 12471" for the unversioned targets. It should give a
"Skipped" notification, right?

Unrelated to the above, a minor comment: Mike Pilato has suggested
that whenever any block of a chained conditional requires curly
braces, they should all get curlies. Thus:

         if (err && err->apr_err != SVN_ERR_WC_NOT_DIRECTORY)
           {
             return err;
           }
         else if (err)
           {
             svn_error_clear (err);
             err = SVN_NO_ERROR;
             result_rev = SVN_INVALID_REVNUM;
             if (ctx->notify_func)
               (*ctx->notify_func) (ctx->notify_baton, path,
                                    svn_wc_notify_skip, svn_node_unknown,
                                    NULL, svn_wc_notify_state_unknown,
                                    svn_wc_notify_state_unknown,
                                    SVN_INVALID_REVNUM);
           }

I too find that more readable. However, if you prefer the way it is,
that's the end of the matter as far as I'm concerned. This particular
style question is worth exactly as much space I've devoted to it, up
to and including the end of this sentence, and not a bit more :-).
