Re: [Subclipse-users] Couldn't find repository when committing to multilple repos in a single transaction

I was hoping there was an easy way to tell if something is an external or not. If other clients are ignoring externals, then either there is an easy way to find out what's an external, or they are doing the scan as you suggested.

I like that subclipse let's you see that externals have changed, unlike other clients. I would not want this to go away.

In the very least the error message needs to be made clearer.

I think that a solution that allows to commit everything from a single commit dialog should be persued, and if its a performance hog, it should be made an preference that's disable by default and perhaps referenced in the error message.

The approach other clients seem to use, including the command line, is
to just completely ignore all externals, even if they are in the same
repository. Would you consider the problem fixed if we just stopped
showing them in the commit dialog? I think the way these clients
allow you to commit the items, would be to explicitly select them when
taking the commit option.

I think any solution would require us running svn info on every item
in the commit dialog so that we know the repository it belongs to. It
is conceivable we could do something like that, but we need to agree
it is actually worth it and an improvement.
