The above is the preferred way forward, but if you hit roadblocks with that, there _is_ a crude alternative: % grep -a '^type:' /path/to/repository/db/revs/0/728 This will extract only one field from the rfc822-formatted node-rev header. It's a poor substitute to the Perl script, but better than nothing. Cheers, Daniel
