This will require updating each checkout separately to keep them current. Option #2 (if it still works in svn): Use "svn co -N" to checkout the base directory, followed by "svn update -N" for each intermediate directory (if any), and finally a normal "svn update" for each leaf directory (i.e. library). Once all significant directories are updated, run "svn update" on the base directory to tidy up/fill in anything missing. After this, only a single update will be required to keep the entire tree current. Note: After "svn co -N", the sub-directories won't be visible (or if doing option #1). You can use "svn ls <repo-url>[/<path>]" to get the names for the yet-to-be created directories. -Chad _______________________________________________ Bf-committers mailing list Bf-committers@blender.org https://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers
