RE: Re: svn propset svn:externals URL

Hi,

First of all thanks for the answers.

Let me make clear what I would like to do.

We have a repository with our libaries stored in the trunk. Let's call
this our Library repository reachable at svn://domain/trunk.

In an other repository we have sotred our projects. Our projects
repository. Reachable at svn://domain/trunk/projectname

What I want to create is a script which is creating the project,
including all our subdirectories including our library directory.

Projectname
|
->projectfiles
|
->libaries

If I use the command:

svn propset svn:externals "libaries svn://domain/trunk projectname"
Projectname

I get an error:

svn: Setting property on non-local target svn://URL/" is not supported

Which if I translated it correctly means that I can use this command on
a directory in the same repository but not on an external repository
while this is possible with TortoiseSVN.

Did I overlooked an answer in one of your replies or was it that I did
not make my self clear enough?

Thanks again,

Merijn

"PATH_TO_SET-PROPERTY_ON"

svn propset svn:externals "DIRNAME svn://URL/ PATH_TO_SET-PROPERTY_ON"

Check the quotation marks - you must enquote the whole property value.
