Name

svn proplist (plist, pl) — List all properties.

Synopsis

svn proplist [TARGET[@REV]...]

svn proplist --revprop -r REV [TARGET]

Description

List all properties on files, directories, or revisions. The first form lists versioned properties in your working copy, and the second lists unversioned remote properties on a repository revision (TARGET determines only which repository to access).

Options

--changelist (--cl) ARG
--depth ARG
--quiet (-q)
--recursive (-R)
--revision (-r) REV
--revprop
--show-inherited-props
--verbose (-v)
--xml

Examples

You can use proplist to see the properties on an item in your working copy:

$ svn proplist foo.c
Properties on 'foo.c':
 svn:mime-type
 svn:keywords
 owner

But with the --verbose (-v) flag, svn proplist is extremely handy as it also shows you the values for the properties:

$ svn proplist -v foo.c
Properties on 'foo.c':
 svn:mime-type
 text/plain
 svn:keywords
 Author Date Rev
 owner
 sally

List all the versioned properties inherited by a file in your working copy using the --show-inherited-props option:

$ svn proplist --show-inherited-props foo.c
Inherited properties on 'foo.c',
from 'http://svn.example.com/repos':
 svn:auto-props
 svn:global-ignores
Inherited properties on 'foo.c',
from '/home/theob/svn/working-copies/baz-wc':
 svn:auto-props

Lastly, you can get svn proplist output in XML format with the --xml option:

$ svn proplist --xml 
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<properties>
<target
 path=".">
<property
 name="svn:ignore"/>
</target>
</properties>
