Bug Description

Missing: svn update. Also didn't David write a bunch of SVN tools? They
seem to be totally missing from the UI.

The two tools that David has written so far are: (1) history browser,
integrated into the file browser, and (2) a separate diff browser. Still
need to have: update feedback (merge report is part of this); log; commit
UI integrated with diff (hierarchical directory browser?); svn resolved
button; integrate all the above with the file browser interface??

Decided to have the commit interface be part of the file browser, but a
separate mode with the following changes:
1. Shows a tree hierarchy, not just the current folder.
2. Shows only the files being committed (same as svn st).
3. Has a big log box and commit button at the bottom.

Both the regular file browser and commit mode should give you a 'diff'
button on the dropdown which let you see the diff.

URL would be something like /files/myuser/mydir#mode=commit
(I like the # because it means we can switch modes dynamically).

The log screen is a separate app.

I think we should have another app 'svn' which gives you update and
checkout.

History is now integrated into the file browser UI, with the log.

Updating and the new commit interface are still to come.
