RE: Re: Merging and Sparse Checkouts

I agree with you about the "working copy" depth.
Also, I try to merge with the "Fully Recursive" option.
But my problem is : "the test merge" interface doesn't give my same results than the real merge operation.
The "real merge operation" seems to be ok, but the "test merge" gives me some
Is this problem known ?

Second question please : how can I have a working copy with sparse checkout subdirectories and all my externals ?
I would obtain :
        MyBranch (Only this item) (Mybranche has svn:externals with External1 ... External2)
        |_ Rep1 (Fully recursive)
        |_ External 1
        |_ External 2

Thanks for your answers

Use "working copy" as the merge depth.

The depth "working copy" means that the depth for each folder is taken from the depth you checked your working copy out.
