Corrupted order of svn:externals resolution

Hello,

I encountered the following problem with svn:externals.
The resolution of the externals list is not in the order I derfined it.
This causes problems, as I´d like to merge a standard folder with specific
sub-folders of another tree.

Example:

StandardComp -+-- sub1
                                 |
                                 +-- sub2

SpecificComp   -+-- sub1
                                 |             |
                                 |             +-- subsub1
                                 +-- sub2

StandardProject : svn:externals
      sub1 http://.../StandardComp/sub1
      sub2 http://.../StandardComp/sub2

SpecificProject : svn:externals
      sub1 http://.../StandardComp/sub1
      sub2 http://.../StandardComp/sub2
      sub1/subsub1 http://.../SpecificComp/subsub1

Now, if the last externals declaration is resolved first I run into
problems as I got a sub1 folder which isn´t under version control.

Any suggestions?


Kind regards

   Ralf Bauer-Malz
