Examples

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
