imho the log completeness is more important then pretty view
all the more so as most modern displays are widescreen
why the width is an issue?

How would you avoid overflowing the terminal width when the external's
URL is absolute?

Hi

not long ago we have made some reorganization in repository, but forgot to make 
svn:external relative instead of absolute
and I was really confused when build errors surprizingly appeared in an 
unchanged tags

so I think it would be useful to print out external addresses too
eg not just
"Fetching external item into '...'"
but
"Fetching external item from '...' into '...'"

it will allow to recognize such errors easily
