You are correct, that is not how Subversion behaves. Subversion checks the timestamp to determine whether to do a full text comparison. If the timestamp and size of a working file match the recorded values the file is assummed to be unmodified. If the values differ Subversion does a full text comparison to determine if the files differ. -- Philip
