I've just read an interesting thread on the subjet:
http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=users&msgNo=46560

 
It seems that the concept of peg revisions is not clear for everyone.
What I learned is that --revision and @revision is not the same. For my
needs, I will use --revision.
 
Thank you.
