A few days ago upstream released Subversion 1.5.0, a fairly major improvement over 1.4.x. Last night I finally fixed enough build and testsuite bugs to be able to upload it to experimental. For those of you who _haven't_ been caught up in the git craze yet, and are still using this old and boring technology, I would appreciate aggressive testing. I know it's almost, if not already, too late for the lenny library freeze, but I'd _really_ like to try to get 1.5.0 into lenny anyway. It finally has merge tracking with cherry picking, WebDAV caching proxy support, sparse checkouts, hashed repository files (still 1 file per global revision, but now not all in the same dir) and a lot of small UI improvements. The main reason it's in experimental and not sid is that I disabled libsvn-java for now, which is broken because upstream doesn't have much desire to use anything but Sun Java. It's not because I think the rest of the package is necessarily buggy. -- Peter Samuelson | org-tld!p12n!peter | http://p12n.org/
