But we do. 'svn' is a wrapper around svn_client/svn_ra. 'svnadmin' is a wrapper around svn_repos/svn_fs. 'svn' always refers to repositories via URLs. 'svnadmin' always (I think) refers to repositories via paths. 'svnadmin' does not have a dependency on Neon or Serf. I think this distinction is valuable. --dave -- glas...@davidglasser.net | langtonlabs.org | flickr.com/photos/glasser/
