The default repository configuration does not allow changes to revision properties.

In the general case, it's probably best to assume all properties are mutable. http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.5/svn.ref.reposhooks.pre-revprop-change.html Thanks, Stephen -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
