Each version to wh-sandbox is typically a single changeset (some
large changes which are concepually a single unit are split into
multiple commits).  AFAIK you are receiveg the patches via axiom-commit
mailing list.  In my experience also web interface at:

http://axiom.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/axiom/

works reasonably.

Most patches to wh-sandbox are a very dull reading: they remove
hundreds of lines of machine generated files.  The following
patches to wh-sandbox fix user visible problems (many of them
were posted to the axiom-developr mailing list).  The number
allow to identify SVN version and get more details.
