RE: Re: Bug: svn:externals property not working correctly with -r option

Hello,

I ran into the same problem. Thanks for the fix

In my opinion the peg method guarantees that you get exactly the original state, since the revision is resolved first, then the specific path which will exist even if the path is deleted in a later revision. What are the advantages of -r over 'peg revision' method?

I fixed my problem by using only peg instead of -r. Should I use both -r and peg?

I would like to suggest to add the difference to the documentation.
Currently (1.6.16), in section 4.18.1 of the help the main method to get a revision is the -r switch. peg is mentioned all the way at the bottom of the paragraph, after the recommendation to use specific revisions. It does not describe what peg is (I searched for peg, the only hit is in 4.18.1)

Best regards,

Paul
