[Python-Dev] Subversion repository question - back up to older versions

    Tim> First question:

    Tim>    cd to the root of your release24-maint checkout, then
    Tim>    svn switch svn+ssh://pythondev@svn.python.org/python/tags/r242

How is that different than noting that r242 corresponds to revision 39619
and executing:

    svn up -r 39619

?

Thx,
