svn-cur

This is my second attempt to implement svn-cur into CTM.

Look at ftp://cauchy.math.missouri.edu/pub/CTM/svn-cur/

You will have to apply the patch to /usr/src/usr.sbin/ctm/ctm and 
rebuild ctm.  (I think "make depend && make && make install" is what you 
need to do.)

ctm now includes a wrapper around tar and svnadmin.  You will need the 
subversion port installed, and xz installed if your base system doesn't 
have xz in it.

The original ctm was programmed in a very defensive manner, so that it 
would predict errors before they happened.  Unfortunately svnadmin is 
not so defensively programmed.  Also, I don't think I am as meticulous 
as the original programmer Poul-Henning Kamp.

If anyone has advice for how to improve the patch, I would greatly 
appreciate it.  And also, if you try it out and it crashes or does 
something else bad, please tell me about it.

If it works, you should find that svn-cur is operated in exactly the 
same way as the current ctm's.

Thanks, Stephen
