Re: Big update to project currently under version control?

Hi Ryan,

No, I hadn't read about vendor branches and / or svn_load_dirs.pl. Some of
this goes over my head - I've only ever used svn for personal projects and
only so I can keep track of local changes I've made, in case I decide I've
screwed something up, down the track.

If my setup is something like this:

Repository in c:\subversion\voodoologic

Versioned files (ie, with all the ".svn" subdirectories) in
"k:\xampp\htdocs\voodoologic"

New fully working copy with lots of external updates in
"k:\xampp\htdocs\wp21"

Should I be issuing something like:

svn_load_dirs.pl files:///subversion/voodoologic k:/xampp/htdocs/voodoologic
k:/xampp/htdocs/wp21

Any help appreciated!

All the best,

pt
