External references are stored in properties called svn:externals.
I think Bert is referring to the retrieval of those properties.

There is no concept of a "link", as you called, it in Subversion.
So I am not sure what an "empty link" would mean.
If you wish to brush up your working knowledge of his part of

Then we could have a conversion where both sides use the same terminology.
