Hrm... I do wonder what "TEMPORARILY" was intended to mean there. Maybe
there was some Delta-V-ism that we were supposed to be using but didn't?
Ah! Neon's use of this header explains it:
{{{
/* The HTTP delta draft uses an If-None-Match header holding an
entity tag corresponding to the copy we have. It is much more
natural for us to use a version URL to specify what we have.
Thus, we want to use the If: header to specify the URL. But
mod_dav sees all "State-token" items as lock tokens. When we
get mod_dav updated and the backend APIs expanded, then we
can switch to using the If: header. For now, use a custom
header to specify the version resource to use as the base. */
ne_add_request_header(request->ne_req,
SVN_DAV_DELTA_BASE_HEADER, delta_base);
}}}
