RE: Partial update possible?

This one worked, although i dont really understand the mechanism behind it! Thanks to all!

     svn update -r0 <directory name>
     rm -rf <directory name>
     svn update --set-depth empty <directory name>

The feature does not support removing stuff from a working copy. You have to take the opposite approach. Do an initial checkout with --depth=immediates and then selectively expand the folders you want.
