Ok, how about creating something like this. To be called from inside the
status callback for compatibility with the testsuite (a temporary thing
of course).

/* Get the working revision of @a local_abspath using @a wc_ctx. If @a
 * local_abspath is not in the working copy, return @c
 * SVN_ERR_WC_PATH_NOT_FOUND.
 *
 * This function is meant as a temporary solution for using the
 * old-style semantics of entries. It will handle any uncommitted
 * changes (delete, replace and/or copy-here/move-here).
 *
 * For a delete the @a revision is the BASE node of the operation root,
 * e.g the path that was deleted. But if the delete is below an add,
 * the revision is set to SVN_INVALID_REVNUM. For an add, copy or move
 * we return SVN_INVALID_REVNUM. In case of a replacement, we return the
 * BASE revision.
 *
 * The @changed_rev is set to the latest committed change to @a
 * local_abspath before or equal to @a revision, unless the node is
 * copied-here or moved-here. The it is the revision of the latest
 * committed change before or equal to the copyfrom_rev. NOTE, that we
 * use SVN_INVALID_REVNUM for a scheduled copy.
 *
 * The @a changed_date and @a changed_author are the ones associated
 * with @a changed_rev.
 */
svn_wc__node_get_working_rev_info(svn_revnum_t *revision,
                                  svn_revnum_t *changed_rev,
                                  apr_time_t *changed_date,
                                  const char *changed_author,
                                  svn_wc_context_t *wc_ctx,
                                  const char *local_abspath,
                                  apr_pool_t *scratch_pool,
                                  apr_pool_t *result_pool);

It will consist of the code I've put inside assemble_status() in the
previous patch. While we want this behaviour for the status callback:

print_status(..., svn_wc_status3_t *status)
{
  if (status->replaced)
    Get the info from BASE
  if (status->add/copy-here/move-here)
    Use the info inside svn_wc_status3_t (as described for read_info())
  if (status->deleted)
    if (status->inside_an_add)
       /* I have no idea really */
    else
      not_yet_implemented_get_base_of_delete()
}

Ok, 'we want' is really 'I think we want' but you get the idea.

There is no way to detect those states from the callback.
status->text_status was _not_t the way to go. I didn't get any specific
reasons to why, but I'm assuming it maps poorly to the new states in
svn_wc__db_state_t. And the temporary svn_wc__node_is_status_{added,...}
had a couple of quirks with not detecting obstructed_add and so on.
Using the function I outlined above I can let status->revision be easily
defined while still beeing compatible with the testsuite.

Maybe we should create svn_wc_status_kind2_t to make the relevant db
states available to the upper layers.

[...]

Cheers,
Daniel
