That's the result of a change in the APR hash table implementation. Subversion often uses "hash order" and in the past this was always the same for a given set of hash keys. The new APR implementation means that this order is no longer constant. > why the output shouldn't be sorted by name or something else ? > or why svn don't have a sort option this is insane . It could be done but nobody has done it yet, the APR change is only a few weeks old. Sorting may need to be optional as there is a cost to sorting that not everybody would want. -- Philip
