Please can you say why you want to know "what 'svn update' will do"? How does
printing the initial and/or final revision number at the beginning of its
operation help you? I don't see the point of printing "to revision 413" at the
beginning as well as the end in your short example; I imagine this would only
be useful for updates that take a long time.

I am also interested. Could you or someone describe exactly what information
TSVN's similar feature provides, and help give an idea of why it is useful?
