I'm with you on this one Vern. When I mentioned MRGSRC earlier, I think it's the same at PDM 55.

"Which revision put this change into production" is much more important to me than "on which day was this line changed". Do you have a case where the latter is better than the former? I'm no Subversion expert, but I _think_ it should be possible to get the first and possibly the second from Subversion, but I don't know how easy it would be. I haven't noticed this functionality in any of the Subversion clients I've seen, but I've only used a couple in any serious way. Can any of the more experienced Subversion users comment on this?
