normal behavior or bug ? (svn:externals on a non-recursive checkout)
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Hi,
alhya ~/kde/svn/% svn co --non-recursive
https://svn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/KDE/kde-i18n
.....
Checked out revision 410459.
alhya ~/kde/svn/% cd kde-i18n
alhya ~/kde/svn/kde-i18n% svn propget svn:externals
admin https://svn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/KDE/kde-common/admin
alhya ~/kde/svn/kde-i18n% svn up admin
At revision 410459.
alhya ~/kde/svn/kde-i18n% ls admin
ls: admin: No such file or directory
svn up normal_subdir works fine though.
so basically you have no way to update from a svn:externals if it was
not checkouted at the first shot.
This is problematic for KDE translators people for example who need this
kind of feature (because kde-i18n handles many gigabytes of datas and
nobody wants to fully checkout it ;) and the build system is hold in an
svn:externals reference...(KDE people would : cd kde-i18n; svn up
your_team_language to checkout their language only and svn up admin to
get the build system which is shared by all KDE modules)
so, it is a bug or a feature ? :)
Cheers,
Mik

Well ... there _is_ :-( ... but it doesn't make the current situation
any better. (Those logs below are taken from Subversion 1.1.4 but I've
just tested 1.2 and the same thing happends)
Here are two "svn update"s ... the first one demonstrating the aditional
problem -- svn fetching the external item which has never been requested
-- and the second one show the same problem as the message I'm replying
to.
"svn update" appears to not only not work with -N for external items,
but the behaviour of -N is reversed.
