I think Garrick would like the single, global revision number when
something at a specified location or anywhere in the subhierarchy was
last changed?
Garrick, if I'm understanding you righ
Here might be one way
svn ls -R -v <URL-to-some-dir>
and then for that "some-dir" itself, it looks like you'd need to do an
ls on its parent and extract that one rev num you care about for
"some-dir":
svn ls -v <URL-to-some-dir's-parent>
Then, after you've collected all the rev nums, the max one is the
latest change.
On further thought, I think this gives the same result much more
quickly:
svn log --quiet URL | head
