svn_dirent_t::size: often not the "real" file size

Hi SVN developers,

 

I am working on an TotalCommander plugin to browse SVN repositories. Now I
have the problem that on some repositories the filesize reported by
svn_client_list3 is different from the "real" file size of the working copy -
so comparing the SVN repo with the working copy is impossible. So here are my
questions on this issue:

 

· Is there a way for a SVN client to detect the "real" filesize?

· Does this behavior change with the server version? I have one
server where the filesize seems to match, another server where it does not
match.

· If there are servers that reports "real" file sizes: is there a
client functionality to detect if he is connected to a server with "good"
behavior?

 

This may be not the correct way to do a compare, there would be better ways
using the SVN interface. But I am limited to the TC plugin interface. And in
this interface there is no "Compare with file" function. I have just to
deliver the correct properties, and TC itself does the operation in a way the
user has configured it.

 

Cheers,
