Modifying SVN Externals with Specific Revision
Hi all,
I have a folder with the svn:externals property set, grabbing an external folder from a different part of the repository:
-r6367 ../common/testproc proc1/common
If I go into proc1/common and edit a file in there, svn stat shows the file as modified, but it seems that since I specified a specific revision, I am unable to commit the modified external file. It is essentially ignored by svn commit.
This is, in fact, the behavior I want. I just want to know if it's guaranteed that modifications to external directories with a specific revisions will not be committed.
Can someone verify this? Cannot find this specific case anywhere.

Not quite. That's trunk's documentation; promises made there are not
binding. The released docs are these: https://subversion.apache.org/docs/#api

It is an explicit API promise of svn_client_commit6():
* If @a include_file_externals and/or @a include_dir_externals are #TRUE,
* also commit all file and/or dir externals (respectively) that are reached
* by recursion, except for those externals which:
* - have a fixed revision, or
* - come from a different repository root URL (dir externals).
* These flags affect only recursion; externals that directly appear in @a
* targets are always included in the commit.
Cheers,
Daniel
