Description

From what I understood from the manual, SVN keeps a cached "pristine" version 
of the latest revision the working copy was synchronised with the repository 
(via a commit/update/etc). 

When working on a slow connection, it becomes quite troublesome to check the 
differences between revisions, or between the latest revision and your working 
copy. Could it be possible to add client-side caching of all revisions - such 
that a file from any revision would have to be downloaded only once from the 
repository? I am aware how inefficient this will be regarding disk storage - 
however, some people would definitely prefer less disk space over bandwidth!

Thanks.
