Re: Ignoring tags and branches

Are you using Subversion 1.5 or greater?

You can use the --depth=immediates switch to just checkout the
directories for trunk, branches, and tags:

    $ svn co --depth=immediates svn://localhost/company

This will checkout all fifty projects, but just the project directory
and nothing else.

Then you can do something like this:

    $ cd company
    $ svn update */trunk

That should checkout all the trunks without the branches and tags.
