Hi all,
Coming from CVS, I was used to having tags and branches be a "virtual"
concept.
But now that I work with SVN at work, I just started to wonder about
branches, and as it turns out, this is more "real", in the sense that
there needs to be folder for branches. The thing is that I've already
created the repository like this:
/libs/somelib
/libs/someotherlib
/project_one
/project_two
This is fine with me and if I want to create tag or a branch, I actually
have to make it on everything, the projects being heavily interdependent
on the libs.
So if I was to create tag, I should put it inside a "tags" branch and
end up with this:
/libs/somelib
/libs/someotherlib
/project_one
/project_two
/tags/sometag/libs/somelib
/tags/sometag /libs/someotherlib
/tags/sometag /project_one
/tags/sometag /project_two
But if a new developer comes in and does a checkout of /, he will get
all the tags, which is not desirable, as he will have to work on trunk
anyway. So I'm wondering if there is a way to say: don't include "tags"
in a checkout made on / but let it go through if the checkout
specifically requests it.
Is this at all possible? If yes, how?
I would very much prefer if I would not be forced to create a "trunk"
folder at the root and put everything into it. The current organisation
makes the tags and branches transparent except to those who really want
them.
Thanks for your help
Olivier Sannier
