That Subversion's revision numbers apply to entire trees and not

and that a particular file may have not been changed between revisions.

Compared R146 to R131, some files have been modified,
some have been added.

Just one example:
svn co file:///repository/xyz/trunk r131 -r131
svn co file:///repository/xyz/branches/3.02 r146 -r146

$ svn info r131/lib/lang.conf.core.php
