RE: Checking out only a subdirectory of a project?

I’m using:

Svn, version 1.4.2 (r22196) compiled Nov 3 2006, 16:53:07

Copyright © 2000-2006 CollabNet

I’m currently doing everything through the command line client and server
utilities (though eventually will have my developers use TSVN)

OK, now give a repository that looks like:

> VENDOR_REPO_ROOT

>

> |_Solomon

>

> |_versions

>

> |_V55

>

> | |_Solomon

>

> | |_{Version 55 source files}

I want to check out ONLY the Solomon directory that is the subfolder of the
V55 directory to a working directory named Solomon…. How do I do this? When
I try to use :

Svn co it seems to only let me check out the entire project (i.e. the first
“Solomon” folder and all it’s children)

Is it not possible to check out parts of a project independent of the total
project?

That's really strange and this explain also why you have the problems you
described with your svn:externals.

I think that it should not be like that. What version of subversion do you
have ? Do you use a third party tool ?

Regards

Christophe
