| 1 Introduction |
| ============== |
| |
| This is a document intended for use by Subversion developers only. |
| In particular, interface naming rules do not apply here. I.e. even |
| SVN_* identifiers are not part of the public API unless declared |
| as public in some public header file. |
| |
| The SVN source code boasts a number of enviroment variable or C pre- |
| processor enabled tweaks that are mainly aimed at developer support. |
| If you introduce new ones, please document them here. |

| Purpose: Detecting logic issues like key collisions etc. within |
| the membuffer_cache. |
| If you define this macro, the getter functions of the |
| membuffer_cache will performed expensive checks on the |
| cached items, requested keys and entry types. If any |
| mismatch is detected, therespective getter will return |
| an error. |
