tortoisesvn - How to correctly set an external path on SVN? -


i'm trying set external path on svn. here in svn:

  1. right click on folder want external
  2. select "show properties"
  3. new -> externals
  4. in "externals", click new
  5. at local path, tried setting path wanted, whatever set, when update files, adds path wrote folder added external. example folder on svn "externals". if set local path ^/trunk/external, when i'll commit tries fetch files (all long path before)/externals/^/trunk/externals. how tell local path current directory? if set nothing, complains, if set ./ complains...

  6. for url fetch files from, works when set file, not folder?

note: used this site unfortunately, part have trouble says:

to add new external, click new... , fill in required information in shown dialog.

i read tips afters don't help... if has concrete example lot.

this dialog tortoisesvn you're having difficulties with:

tortoise svn new external definition dialog

here, local path refers file or folder relative folder has externals property set on it. so, if had folder @ ^/trunk/externals wanted exist here well, i'd set follows:

  • local path: externals (note must not exist in current directory; created)
  • url: ^/trunk/externals

this setting property (as can see title bar) on folder c:\sources\ops. result updating c:\sources\ops pull contents of ^/trunk/externals folder in svn c:\sources\ops\externals.
