The svnidlong macro now supports real comments between its arguments in order to support latexdiff. The autokw feature should still be compatible with older SVN releases, but not all of them could be tested. Please report any issues to martin(a)scharrer-online.de or under http://latex.scharrer-online.de/svn-multi . Changelog: * Fixed `autokw` to work with newer versions (1.6.x) of Subversion where the `format` file is not in the `.svn` directory anymore. * Added debug output for `autokw` option. * svn entries parser: fixed bugs with empty date and revision values. * Fixed problem with `chapter` defined as ` elax` in ` ableofrevisions`. * Fixed unwanted spaces. * Changed `svnidlong` to allow comments with braces between arguments. This avoids problems with latexdiff. * Changed catcodes to normal of reading `.svx` files. * Updated code documentation. * Updated user documentation. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/svn-multi .
