The -r 0 qualifier is neat. I'd not noticed that before. Not sure why you use stdin since the file already exists?

I suppose the required code as above is quite short. However it might be useful to create a version (or verions) that handle: - put if absent (-r 0) - put unconditionally - put if newer (-r n) Also the function could add the standard ['--no-auth-cache', '--non-interactive'] qualifiers. It looks as though svnmucc does not honour config [auto-props] so that could be added to the put if absent code. > - Sam Ruby
