I like the brevity. One concern that I have with this (and with the current
output, for that matter) is that there is really nothing that tells me that
E180003 means SVN_ERR_RA_LOCAL_REPOS_OPEN_FAILED. I've got a line which
lists the symbolic name, a bunch of lines with effectively say "ditto", and
then a line of actual "meat" that refers only to a number and *not* the name.

Fair 'nuff.
