bug#1047: 23.0.60; Subversion revision number in mode-line

[Nick Roberts]

In Emacs 22.1, it seems that a buffer visiting a file under SVN controls
displays the the revision number of the last changeset of which that file was a
part.  This is also what Subclipse does in Eclipse.

In 23.0.60 (current CVS) it appears to display the revision number of the
current tree.  That means that, if the working copy is up-to-date, all files
display the same number in the mode-line.

The former behaviour seems more informative to me.

I went to a svn working directory, and did `svn up'. This said
"At revision 3229."

I have a file called `emacs' here. `svn status -v emacs' says:

3229     3204 gmorris      emacs

I opened this file with emacs -Q.

In both Emacs 22.3 and the current CVS trunk, I see `SVN-3204' in the
modeline.

You're saying you see `SVN-3229' in the current CVS?

It looks like Dan fixed it after I reported it the first time.  As I didn't
hear anything, I just presumed nothing had happened.

If I've followed your previous instructions correctly, this e-mail should
hopefully close the bug report.

Sorry about the noise.
