problem with depth

Hi,

Maybe I'm misunderstanding how the depth param should work, but I've got 
a problem when updating with --depth=infinity:

$ svn co 
http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/svn/tortoisesvn/trunk/src/Resources 
Resources d:\test\Resources --depth=files

this will get me a working copy of the Resources folder, without the 
subfolder.

Now, I'd like to get the subfolder too:

$ svn up d:\test\Resources --depth=infinity

only the existing working copy is updated, the subfolder isn't fetched.

I thought that passing --depth=infinity to 'svn up' would override the 
depth of the existing working copy? Shouldn't it be possible to change 
the existing depth of a working copy with an update?

Using r24980 of the Subversion trunk.

Stefan

Already done :) (See attached screenshot)
If you have some great idea on how to use/implement that feature, please 
let me know!

If you're busy implementing new svn 1.5 features in TSVN, don't forget
to take a look at the changelist stuff!  There's a huge amount of
creative GUI potential there.

Ah, ok :)
Thanks for clearing that up. I know I'm a little early with using the 
new features in TSVN, but I thought that with these new features, I need 
some time to implement them in the UI correctly.

The behavior you expect is what's supposed to happen -- we're just not
done implementing it yet! :-)
