Re: Copying BASE revision of WC path

> This is http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=1643.

Aha, there was an issue already...I wasn't able to track down that
one.

The background for the question was that I'm toying around with some
ideas for "persistent changelists" aka "shelves", and being able to
create a branch from the BASE of a WC with local changes seemed to be
a good starting point.

The next question is if the following command line is actually
supposed to do what I'm expecting of it:

  % cd <WC-root>
  % svn cp -rBASE . svn://somehost/somerepo/branches/mybranch

That is, should it

1) create a copy that exactly reflects the state of my WC *without*
   local changes, including any mixed revisions and/or switches, or

2) create a copy of "." as seen in its BASE revision?

Or put another way, should "BASE" be evaluated for the top-level of
the copy operation only, or individually for each of the sub-targets?

Likewise, it was a really good conference.
