Hi Florian, Cool. Some people have been asking for this feature. I never implemented it myself because I've been unsure if it's philosophically proper. Ut's functionally redundant as svn(1) does the same thing w/o needing a working copy. But I'll accept your patch with some minor modifications (comments inline).
