nixpkgs/pkgs/build-support/fetchsvn/nix-prefetch-svn
Eelco Dolstra 5c847a370a * fetchsvn' now requires the MD5 hash (as computed by nix-hash') of
the tree being fetched from a Subversion repository.  The revision
  number is now optional (and defaults to HEAD).

  This makes `fetchsvn' more pure.  First, a URL/revision tuple does
  not uniquely identify a file resource, since the repository itself
  might change.  Second, `svn:external' attributes can cause arbitrary
  resources to be exported.

  A script `nix-prefetch-svn' has been provided to determine the hash
  of a URL.
