Re: How do I obtain a list of modified, added, or deleted files?

One possible solution could be writing a synmethod & schedule it with
certain time interval i.e. after certain time this method gets invoked &
fetch only updated data from server . In this case,we need to store the
global commit id , which will be used to get updated data.This method can
use "svn info -r commit id" . The output of this can be parsed & used to
infer the last updated, deleted or modified files.
