AW: Re: ignore a directory

Hello Ryan,

thanx for the response. what is then the best way to manage that kind of a scenario with help of svn? I can't imagine to use file-links (ln ) for linking all files in A/ and A/B not A/B/C ..

Greetz,

I don't think there's any way to do that. svn:externals always pulls
in all of the external resource.
