node unique id
Can I assume the node revision id is unique in subversion? If so, is there an API to get it by repository root, path and revision number parameters? Regards, Ren

An ID is represented as an opaque object svn_fs_id_t. The contents of this object depend on the filesystem backend used. There are a few functions to operate on svn_fs_id_t, such as svn_fs_unparse_id(). It's unclear what purpose you'd like to use these for so it's hard to give more specific advice.
RE: node unique id
Hi Stefan, Thank you very much for the response. The purpose is to the uniquely identify a file for a specific revision or the latest revision. What can I do if the file didn't change for a specified revision, then I will need to get the latest revision number for the file, is there a API to get the latest revision for a node?

svn: E125012: Invalid character in hex checksum
I was recently running Fedora 22 x64 with svn version subversion-1.8.13-7.fc22.x86_64 (possibly but unlikely as low as subversion-1.8.13-2.fc22.x86_64). svn was functioning just fine in all regards. Everything was installed all on a single server, code, svn service, the lot. My format is version 3. I then did an upgrade to Fedora 23 which installed subversion-1.9.3-1.fc23.x86_64 Now, commands like svn checkout, svn commit, svn list (anything that needs to talk to the svn service) all return "svn: E125012: Invalid character in hex checksum" immediately. I have rolled the /var/svn files (the subversion database) back to multiple versions in the past but all with exactly the same outcome. This problem does not appear to be corruption in my database. It appears to be something that changed in the upgrade from 1.8.13 to 1.9.3. I can install a Fedora 22 VM with the old svn version and try and access the database, but that will still not allow me to access it from the newer svn version. Is there something I need to do to upgrade the database between these versions?
