Directories are currently not allowed on changelists, because when we
designed changelist we couldn't find a proper way how changelists on
directories should behave. Especially when combined with the then relative
new --depth.

We decided to just not allow changelists on directories, to allow setting
them later when we would get the behavior defined.

During 1.7 development we tried again to define a valid behavior, and failed
again :(

Suggestions and helping design the feature welcome on

Directory as part of the changelist - possible?

[Alexey Neyman]

Hi all,

Is it possible to add a directory to a change list? I have a property 
modification on one of the directories - however, an attempt to include it in 
the changelist fails:

$ svnadmin create /tmp/foo
$ svn co file:///tmp/foo foo.wc
Checked out revision 0.
$ cd foo.wc
$ svn mkdir dir1
A dir1
$ svn ci -m 1
Adding dir1

Committed revision 1.
$ svn ps foo:bar baz dir1
property 'foo:bar' set on 'dir1'
$ svn st
 M  dir1
$ svn cl cl0 dir1
Skipped 'dir1'
$ svn --version
svn, version 1.8.0-dev (under development)
   compiled Nov 16 2011, 13:23:31

Regards,
Alexey.
