Re: svn propset svn:externals

Hi All

What I have now is this:

C:\sandbox\elephant> svn propset svn:externals "trunk/aeryn
http://aeryn.tigris.org/svn/aeryn/trunk" .
C:\sandbox\elephant>svn propget svn:externals
trunk/aeryn http://aeryn.tigris.org/svn/aeryn/trunk

However, when I update Elephant, I don't get a populated trunk/aeryn. :-(

Sometimes I get:

C:\sandbox\elephant>svn update

Fetching external item into 'trunk\aeryn'
svn: Working copy 'trunk\aeryn' locked
svn: run 'svn cleanup' to remove locks (type 'svn help cleanup' for details)

'svn help cleanup' doesn't appear to yield anything useful.

Regards
Paul

Hi Paul,

> cd c:\sandbox\elephant
> svn propset svn:externals http://aeryn.tigris.org/svn/aeryn/trunk
> trunk/aeryn

You've got things confused. You want to set the svn:externals property
on
http://elephant.tigris.org/svn/elephant/trunk and set it to
aeryn http://aeryn.tigris.org/svn/aeryn/trunk
(i.e. the property is one or more lines of the form "local_subdir
URL_of_destination")

So what you want is

cd c:\sandbox\elephant
svn propset svn:externals trunk
aeryn http://aeryn.tigris.org/svn/aeryn/trunk
