## Interface ISVNEditor

- All Superinterfaces:
    `ISVNDeltaConsumer`
  All Known Implementing Classes:
    `SVNReplicationEditor`

      public interface ISVNEditor
      extends ISVNDeltaConsumer

  The ISVNEditor interface is used by SVNRepository to update versioned files/dirs, check out files/dirs from a repository, commit changes to a repository, take status of files/dirs, get differences between files.

  When used for updating (checking out, getting differences or status), an implementor should provide its own appropriate implementation of the ISVNEditor interface along with a reporter baton (ISVNReposrterBaton) to a corresponding method of an SVNRepository driver. Reporter baton will be used to describe the state of local dirs/files - their current revisions, whether a file/dir is deleted or switched. An editor is invoked after the reporter baton finishes its work. It is used to "edit" the state of files/dirs, where "edit" may mean anything: applying changes in updating, switching, checking out (what really changes the state), or handling changes in getting status or differences (what is only used to inform about, show, separately store changes, and so on). The concrete behaviour of the editor is implemented by the provider of that editor.

  The other kind of using ISVNEditor is committing changes to a repository. Here an editor is given to a caller, and the caller himself describes the changes of local files/dirs. All that collected info is then committed in a single transaction when a caller invokes the `closeEdit()` method of the editor.

    - #### targetRevision

          void targetRevision​(long revision)
                       throws SVNException

      Sets the target revision the operation is running for. For example, the target revision to which an update is running.
      Parameters:
