Single File Checkout?
I'm trying to get my SVN to checkout a single program from a directory
which contains hundreds of files. I know this isn't the most ideal
setup, but for the moment it will have to do, as we'll reorganise as we
move forward.
I had problems with SVN saying it will only do a directory, i.e.
> $ svn checkout file:///db/svn_test/ldev/testsystem/progs/cim.i
> svn: URL 'file:///db/svn_test/ldev/testsystem/progs/cim.i'
> refers to a file, not a directory
Is SVN limited so that it can only work at a directory level??? Any
help on this or known work a rounds would be great.

Hi Jonathan,
1)
Maybe you can checkout all files and remove all unwanted
Files to save Diskspace.
Than you can use "svn update *" to get only the remaining
files.
With "svn update new_file" you can add new files to your
working copy.
2)
If you use apache, you can use authz_svn_mod to give
every Programmer different rights on the same directory.

But I'm afraid, you have to specify for every File the
access of all users:
[calc:/trunk/all_projects/project_one]
harry = rw
sally =
[calc:/trunk/all_projects/project_two]
harry =
sally = rw
Regards, Martin

Why is it a problem to checkout a directory just because it contains
hundreds of files?
