Re: Annotate bug

Hi Stephen,
This is a known bug in the command line client. subversion does not
truncate the username to 10 characters, so we have no idea where the
java code starts. A similar problem exists when getting the status of a
file.
The javahl client can work around the annotation bug by using a
callback, but it has ben turned off (not sure why). Should put it back
in and wait for the screams :)

If you are curious run an svn annotate from the command line to see what
we have to parse. It isn't pretty!

cheers,
    Brock
