Macro Definition Documentation

Since

New in 1.2.

Definition at line 592 of file svn_props.h.

SVN_PROP_ENTRY_PREFIX

#define SVN_PROP_ENTRY_PREFIX   SVN_PROP_PREFIX "entry:"

Another type of non-user-visible property.

"Entry properties" are stored as fields with the administrative 'entries' file.

Definition at line 576 of file svn_props.h.

SVN_PROP_WC_PREFIX

#define SVN_PROP_WC_PREFIX   SVN_PROP_PREFIX "wc:"

The property name prefix that makes a property a "WC property".

For example, WebDAV RA implementations might store a versioned-resource url as a WC prop like this:

   name = svn:wc:dav_url
   val  = http://www.example.com/repos/452348/e.289 

The client will try to protect WC props by warning users against changing them. The client will also send them back to the RA layer when committing.
