Yes, I suspect most of the changes you proposed for the INPUT FORMAT
section would actually be better as changes for the
dump-load-format.txt document. I imagine that folks on the dev@ list
might be able to clarify a few details (e.g., what one is expected to
do with historical repositories with non-UTF-8 property data), too.
What do you think?
The patch for svn-fe(1) already looks pretty good. I was planning on
applying it after finding a moment to clarify the patch description.
Thanks again,
Jonathan
