Subject: Target-Selector value
The Target-Selector is used to select a particular revision of a versioned
resource. It can be:
(a) a workspace URL
(b) a revision identifier
(c) a label
since the value could be one of three types, and it may be ambiguous which
is being sent by a client, I propose that the value is always a URI and that
we reserve two new schemes
revisionid: and
label:
where the protocol specific part of revisionid: is an opaque variable length
sequence of octets, and the protocol specific part of label: is a UTF-8
encoded String.
Examples of valid target selectors would, therefore, be:-
(a) http://foo.com/mywksp
(b) revisionid:3
(c) label:pick me
