NAME
rsvn - remote svn - run subversion commands on the file server if possible
SYNOPSIS
rsvn ANY_SVN_COMMAND
rsvn update
rsvn --test
DESCRIPTION
rsvn ANY_SVN_COMMAND
rsvn update
rsvn --test
When possible, run the svn command on the file server where it does not have to wait for NFS. Otherwise run svn as usual. Some SVN commands will always run locally, either for "safety" or because there is no benefit of running on the file server (svn log).
The commands that will be sent to the file server by default are these (and their abbreviations):
add checkout cleanup diff merge resolved
revert status switch update
Why is commit not run remotely? Because it will either start an editor, which won't always work through noninteractive SSH, or you might use -m "FOO BAR" and the shell's quoting gets all screwed up. It would be good to figure out how to solve these problems, and add "commit" to the list.
ARGUMENTS

-
Print debug messages.
- --help
-
Displays this message and program version and exits.
- --local
-
Force a command to be run locally, even if normally it could be run on the file server.

- --test
-
Print debug messages and DON'T actually execute the svn command.
- --version

- RSVN_SSH
-
The command to use in place of "ssh" to login to remote systems.
