Re: Copy of a partial tree?

But, uh, I thought the normal use for sparse dirs was more like:

  svn co --depth=empty {URL}/A
  svn up --depth=infinity A/B A/C A/D

...i.e., I want to have directory A present but only certain files or
subdirs of A: B, C, and D. If I do that, how am I supposed to schedule
everything else inside A for deletion before the copy?

I think it would be useful to allow 'svn cp . {URL}' to snapshot the
true state of the WC, just as it does if part of the WC has been
switched.
