There is either some aversion to including this functionality in
Subversion, or some uncertainty as to how best to do it. In any case,
it's not there now.

Someone patched Subversion to provide this feature; it's the "meta-
data-versioning" branch if you want to try it out:

http://svn.collab.net/viewvc/svn/branches/meta-data-versioning/

Be sure to read its readme.

versioning/README.TXT
