Oh good suggestion, I didn't see that `svn' even has an `ls' command
which lists all files which are under it's control and not ignored.
$ ./gendistlist.sh | sort > DISTLIST
$ svn ls -R | sort > DISTLIST2
$ diff -u DISTLIST DISTLIST2|less
The only difference between these 2 files are, that `svn ls' adds the
directorys too
for example:
+boot/
+boot/i386/
+boot/i386/pc/
boot/i386/pc/boot.S
boot/i386/pc/cdboot.S
This shouldn't hurt, but with some sed playing probable we could get rid
of it, I'm just not that sed expert :)
This seems to be the best then nobody needs to remember to
update ./gendistlist.sh and current DISTLIST seems again already a bit
out of date ;)
