Yes, I think it's the update-cvs.sh script in utils/

What if I want to make my own plugins/skins, add others from other sources,
edit the ones on the repository?

your plugins can reside in the same directory, the update will just mark them as unknown files, but it won't matter, it won't try to update them or anything as long as it doesn't have a .svn/ directory. If you modify the plugins/skins, you'll have them merged on an update, if there is a conflict, then you modified a line that was also modifed on SVN so you should fix that... but also, having a symlink is the exact same thing btw.. you know that ? svn follows the symlink and find .svn/ in the subdir and updates it too.

Besides, I like the plugins/skins to reside on the program folder, so if I use them from another profile, they are still there, and not with the profile.

I said to put them in ~/.amsn/plugins and ~/.amsn/skins not in ~/.amsn/<profile>/plugins and ~/.amsn/<profile>/skins which means they will be for all profiles, not just one. But, they will be indeed for only one unix user, since the home dir changes.. if you want to put them in the 'program files', you can also do it, and mix both dir contents (example, skins/ will have directoris from amsn-extras but also 'default/' from amsn module), svn (as well as cvs) should be able to deal with it, maybe not exactly because there will be a conflict between the two rootdirs, so if a new plugin is created in amsn-extras, it might not add it because the .svn/ dir in plugins/ is from the amsn module not the amsn-extras. But for subdirs, updating the plugins, it should be ok.

Just personal preferences.

I know, we cna't discuss tastes because it's meaningless. You do what you want, I do what I want, I just wanted to share what I thought because you might not have thought about doing it that way.

I don't understand the linking part..
what I have is ont amsn-extras somewhere on my disk, then I did ONCE :
cd ~/.amsn && rm -rf plugins skins && ln -s /path/to/amsn-extras/skins
skins && ln -s /path/to/amsn-extras/plugins plugins
and it's done.. I update amsn-extras and all skins and plugins are
updated... I hate when you get a lot of useless symlinks... one is enough
