What's the SVN equivelant for MS VSS sharing
Greetings,
MS visual sourcesafe allows you to share a file or directory
between 2 or more projects. This means that if changes are made to a
shared file in one project, sourcesafe will propagate those changes
to the other projects that are sharing the file.
Does subversion have an equivalent feature to sourcesafe's "share"
feature?
If not, how would the effect be acheived with subversion?
Cheers,
Jeff

There is no exact equivalent, but svn:externals is close. Read the
grrrreat book for more brrrrain food. (svnbook.red-bean.com)

With the exception that it only works on a per-directory base (atm?).
