I'm trying to write a basic Subversion client because I need to integrate Subversion with a product that keeps source code in a database (so it has no notion of "working copy").
I have tried to translate the simple C examples in Garrett Rooney's book into Python, but the very clever SWIG stuff has made the Python access so different from the corresponding C that I can't do it. Example: I can create an apr array but I have no idea how to insert something into it. In C you use APR_ARRAY_PUSH. In Python that doesn't exist. Another example: I can create an apr hash, but I can't work out how to look inside it. In C it is a struct with members count and max etc. In Python it is a class that doesn't remotely resemble the struct. Has anyone got a bare-bones bit of working Python that shows how to do (say) an add or a checkout? There is an example of status in the Subversion book but it's a toy: it doesn't show how you create an authentication callback so it will only work locally. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
