Thanks for the quick response!
That's great news if it is fixed in 1.2.
However, just to make sure I understand correctly,
this seems to work from the svn command line for
file:/// URL (which is what I am using in subclipse)
- although I did think that I had seen it from both
Tortoise & RapidSVN also, but now I can't reproduce it
for them so maybe I am going crazy...! :-)
