RE: sync two copies of a file

If you are running version 1.6.x then you can use a file external. Check out the svn book http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn-book.html#svn.advanced.externals .

Subject: sync two copies of a file

Hi,
Is it possible to have a link to another file inside my repository, so that when checking out, I can have two copies of the same file in two different locations?

My problem is I am using a UML model which generates include and code files in one directory. I want to have all my include files in an include directory but the UML tool doesn't support that. I use svn copy to make a copy of include files in includes directory. But the problem is that when someone updates an include file, then if someone checkout the code, the main include file is different with the include file in includes directory.
I see someone has proposed having a command "svn ln", which seems to solve this problem, but is there any solution at present?

Thanks,
