Re: svn:externals optionally checked out as read only

If I read your question correctly then you are asking Subversion to
control something it can not: the file system. Subversion can make
sure nobody commits anything they are not allowed to (you've already
take care of that) but it can not control what anyone does with what
they have checked out.

I do not know anything about FPGAs so the following may not make any
sense but here it goes. :-) If it is possible to somehow work with
binaries (for some definition of the word that would make sense to
your situation) then you could have those IP projects be provided as
such instead of as source code.

An other option might be to have some shared directory that is mounted
read-only? That might mean you have to rework your build though...
