--------------------------------------------------------------

Put in best-practices doc:

  - (perhaps) suggest the use of environment variables to represent
    long repository URLs.  useful for lots of branching/tagging commands.
    Maybe this can go into our existing best-practices doc?


--------------------------------------------------------------
To be fixed by someone:

 - we seem to inconstisently assume repositories live either in
   /usr/local/svn/ or /usr/local/repositories/ throughout the book.
   We ought to consistify.

--------------------------------------------------------------

To be fixed by cmpilato:

ch05:

   - document that if either the start-commit or pre-commit hook
     fails, STDERR is marshalled back to the client.  (not true of
     post-commit, see issue 443).


--------------------------------------------------------------

To be fixed by sussman:


appC:

   "Mapping Subversion to DeltaV": checkouts don't cause the client to
   do repeated GET and PROPFIND requests.  The data is all embedded in
   the REPORT response now.

The 1.1 Book Fork
==================

Once the book is on shelves (last week in June), we plan to fork the
book between the 1.0.x and 1.1 branches.  Really, this means:

  1. Documenting new 1.1 features and behaviors in /trunk/doc/book

  2. Being very selective about backporting book changes to the 1.0.x
     branch.  (Hitherto, we've always just blindly copied
     /trunk/doc/book to 1.0.x before doing every 1.0.x release.)

  3. Posting the 1.0.x and 1.1 versions of the book on the website.
     (This probably isn't high priority, since only developers are
     using 1.1 right now anyway.  But once 1.1 is released, this will
     be important.)


List of 1.1 features/changes
============================

  * new fsfs backend for repository.  make a comparison chart with
    bdb, just like we did for apache/svnserve that shows tradeoffs.
    also show new libraries in ch01 'big picture' diagram and ch08
    library listing.

  * updates no longer create fs transactions (does this need to be
    documented?  does anyone care other than developers?)

  * slightly tweaked 'svn diff' syntax allows things like
    'svn diff -rX:Y URL@Z'.   Probably need to explain 'peg' objects,
    so folks can understand how/when renames are followed by certain
    commands.

  * do we need to tell people how to activate localized client
    output?  or is that just widespread knowledge?

  * remove SVN_REVNUM_T_FMT from any example code.

  * document new 'svnadmin dump --deltas' in ch05 and ch09.

  * svn export --native-eol
