I think we need to describe checkin as keeping the checked in
resource in
the workspace until the next refresh so they don't disappear. It
seems that
any technique of refreshing a workspace will have the problem that
if the
revisions that you select aren't labeled properly or in the right
activity
or configuration, you might not get the revision you wanted. I don't
think
this is unique to using a workspace RSR to specify the revisions to
select
on refresh although it may require an extra step to update the rule
before
the refresh. I think this is a benefit though.
That's a good point. The need for DAV:current-revision and
DAV:current-label
really resulted from dynamic revision selection, not from having a revision
selection rule. We do still have to give core versioning
clients a way to specify the "default" revision (i.e. some
SET-DEFAULT-REVISION
method).
Cheers,
Geoff
