RE: Hide internal data in svn_wc_entry_t struct

Sorry about top-posting.

Both.

void, because, introducing svn_wc_entry_private_t still leaves space for ABI revving, when we have svn_wc_entry_private2_t.

the word 'baton' because this would mean wc specific baton containing wc specific information... and the term is pretty well-known in svn-dev-land.

Do you mean use name "baton" or use baton syntax with "void *"?
