Denis,
I've made fixes to the SVN application. I think I handle history
correctly now. It was due indeed to code for handling attachments which
lead to bad history code. I've now mimicked what we do in the XWiki import.
I've also added some warning for missing programming rights.
I've found another issue concerning the "defaultDate". Depending on the
Timezone of your wiki it will give different results and can lead to
detecting differences in the code.
I think we should handle this date as a GMT date/time or add time and
timezone to it or add a specific setting for the timezone.
WDYT is the best option ?
Not specific to the SVN application, but IMHO all dates should be stored
as UTC internally, and only the UI display should convert to the
*user's* timezone.
So, data=UTC, UI=user timezone
But this change is deeper and requires lots of changes in the core. Just
something to keep in mind.
