Re: Branching 1.6.x this week

So, I haven't had time to finish the dirent_uri stuff which I started to
add during the month October. The problem is that the new interface
isn't finished, and AFAIC shouldn't be exposed yet.

I don't have time to make this change in the coming days or weeks, so
I'd like to ask if someone can move the file dirent_uri.h out of the
public area (except for svn_dirent_is_root). That should do it normally.
This gives me some time to finish it up before 1.7.

thanks and sorry,

Lieven
