Write a script that takes a URL as an argument. It
will use that URL to do a checkout locally and use the
URL as the root of the checkout. Then using a
FIND-type subroutine find every DIRECTORY node in your
local checkout directory. Query every folder for
externals using 'svn propget', do the transformation
and write the updated property back in with 'svn
propset'. I found this to be a lot faster than to do a
recursive 'svn propget' from the root of the
repository. Plus, you'll need the checkedout directory
to set the property since, for some reason, 'svn
propset' doesn't work on URL references, only on local
checkedout directories.
