svn checkout - quick question

[Z W <mp...@gmail.com>]

Hi All

1- Can one simply checkout a few folders in a directory as opposed to check
out everything under a directory ?
We have a folder what we don't want to check out but want to co all other
directories.

2- Once we checkout these directories (except one), we need to svn merge
from another branch into this checkout that we just did. But the other
branch has other directories that we don't want.

Can we still svn merge and then svn revert -R
/path/to/directory/we/dont/want ?
And then ci after the merge (bearing in mind that it has that 1 missing
directory)

Sincerely

Yes, that is possible, see http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.8/svn.advanced.sparsedirs.html for more information.

You should be able to only merge the pathes you want to merge. See the chapter about merging in the book:
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.8/svn.branchmerge.html
