> {noformat:nopanel=true}
> Proposal:
> The command-line client should not allow the user to set a property in the
> 'svn:' property name space if the client does not recognize that property name
> as valid in the given context, unless the user specifies '--force'.
> When the given property name is in the 'svn:' name space but is unknown to the
> client, or is a known revprop name used as a versioned prop name or vice 
> versa,
> these subcommands should bail out with an error unless '--force' is given:
>   svn pset svn:foo
>   svn pedit svn:foo
> All other subcommands where properties are handled should continue to work as
> before, no '--force' needed, including (but not limited to):
>   svn pdel svn:foo
>   svn pget svn:foo
>   svn plist
>   svn patch, merge, diff, checkout, update, switch
> For the rationale and discussion, see the email thread "[RFC] svn propset 
> should
> require 'force' to set unknown svn: propnames", started 2012-11-19 by Julian
