svn_ls — Returns list of directory contents in repository URL, optionally at revision number
$repos_url
   [, int $revision_no = SVN_REVISION_HEAD
   [, bool $recurse = false
   [, bool $peg = false
  ]]] )
   This function queries the repository URL and returns a list of
   files and directories, optionally from a specific revision. This
   is equivalent to svn list $repos_url[@$revision_no]
  
Note:
This function does not work with working copies.
repos_urlmust be a repository URL.
url
     
       URL of the repository, eg. http://www.example.com/svnroot.
       To access a local Subversion repository via filesystem, use the
       file URI scheme, eg. file:///home/user/svn-repos
      
revision
     Integer revision number to retrieve listing of. When omitted, the HEAD revision is used.
recurse
     Enables recursion.
On success, this function returns an array file listing in the format of:
[0] => Array
    (
        [created_rev] => integer revision number of last edit
        [last_author] => string author name of last edit
        [size] => integer byte file size of file
        [time] => string date of last edit in form 'M d H:i'
                  or 'M d Y', depending on how old the file is
        [time_t] => integer unix timestamp of last edit
        [name] => name of file/directory
        [type] => type, can be 'file' or 'dir'
    )
[1] => ...
This function is EXPERIMENTAL. The behaviour of this function, its name, and surrounding documentation may change without notice in a future release of PHP. This function should be used at your own risk.
Example #1 svn_ls() example
<?php
print_r( svn_ls('http://www.example.com/svnroot/') );
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [created_rev] => 20
            [last_author] => Joe
            [size] => 0
            [time] => Apr 02 09:28
            [time_t] => 1175520529
            [name] => tags
            [type] => dir
        )
    [1] => Array
        (
            [created_rev] => 23
            [last_author] => Bob
            [size] => 0
            [time] => Apr 02 15:15
            [time_t] => 1175541322
            [name] => trunk
            [type] => dir
        )
