[svk-devel] propset from a file?

[David Golden]

Subversion supports setting properties from a file using the "-F" or
"--file" argument:

  $ svn propset svn:ignore -F usual_suspects.txt trunk/

SVK always reserves -F for sourcing the commit message for a file.

However, some properties (e.g. svn:ignore) require a new-line
separated list.  The only way it seems this can be done in SVK is via
"propedit".

Would it be possible to add a new option to "propset" that takes the
property value from a file?  This would be a big help for
automatically setting common properties for svn:ignore across a number
of repositories or paths.  (E.g. "--source")

  $ svk propset svn:ignore --source usual_suspects.txt trunk

Thanks,
David
