Version 1.7 Status

There are no known major reorganizations required to update svnbook to cover Subversion 1.7. However, the replacement of the old working copy library with the new WC-NG in Subversion 1.7 could necessitate fairly substantial section rewrites. C. Michael Pilato plans to take the following multi-step approach to the task:

Step 1: Review Release Notes

The Subversion project's release notes are generally pretty good at pointing out subtle (and major) behavior changes. Check these for stuff missed elsewhere, and file appropriately milestones issues for changes that need to be made.

Step 2: Review Issues

Review outstanding issues marked for closure in this version.

Step 3: Read-thru
