This is how I work with externals. This file is used to store the svn:externals property and have it in a clear human readable text filethat can be seen in any svn viewer. If I need to change the externals I change this file and do: $ svn propset svn:externals -F EXTERNALS.txt $ svn ci . EXTERNALS.txt -m "comment" then, if you do a checkout of http://svn.python.org/projects/distutils/trunk it will grab Python's Lib/distutils. Let me know if this is not wanted. I can drop it it's no big deal.
