Thanks for the info, I'm already doing that part.
I've noticed the main problem though is that I can't tell the
directory apart from the filename, see this example of %s output
where the dir is named "blah test" and the file is named "space file.txt" :
sandbox/blah test space file.txt
Nasty. I don't really see a way around that.
What I'd like to do is this : when a file is committed, I want
to get the full path w/ filename, current revision, previous revision
and run a diff to put up on a webpage.
This works great except for a space issue like the one above.
I don't think I can get people to stop using spaces in filenames
for this particular repository, but I guess I could workaround by
not allowing spaces in dir names and in my loginfo parsing script
split on the first space I see. Ack.
Thanks,
Rob Helmer
