Why do you need to have all that info local? Why not just ask the svn
server for the history and date as needed? I don't understand why you
need this thing.

You have to check what SourceForge allows. Keep in mind that we're not
the administrators of our svn repository. We don't have full access. I
do think that it is possible to use 'rsync' to the svn repository or
something. Marten knows more about this.

Yes, but then you just get that older version in the future. Why do
you want to get it now?
