Re: Ask question---> Can checkout only single file???

If you're using revision 1.5, you can do sparse checkouts. Let's say I
want to checkout only the file svn://localhost/module/trunk/build.xml
in a directory called "workdir"

$ svn co --depth=empty svn://localhost/module/trunk workdir
$ cd workdir
$ svn update build.xml

The first command creates a working directory with no files in it. It
is a checkout of svn://localhost/module/trunk -- just empty.

The "svn update build.xml" inside the workdir brings in the file
build.xml from the server. You now have a Subversion working directory
with only a single file in it.
