svn list — List directory entries in the repository.
List each TARGET file and the contents of each TARGET directory as they exist in the repository. If TARGET is a working copy path, the corresponding repository URL will be used.
The default TARGET is “.”, meaning the repository URL of the current working copy directory.
With --verbose, the following fields show the status of the item:
Revision number of the last commit
Author of the last commit
Size (in bytes)
Date and time of the last commit
--revision (-r) REV --verbose (-v) --recursive (-R) --username USER --password PASS --no-auth-cache --non-interactive --config-dir DIR
svn list is most useful if you want to see what files a repository has without downloading a working copy:
$ svn list http://svn.red-bean.com/repos/test/support README.txt INSTALL examples/ …
Like UNIX ls, you can also pass the --verbose switch for additional information:
$ svn list --verbose file:///tmp/repos
