bug: svn relocate doesn't update relative externals for individual directories

[Trevor Gerbrand]

Hi, I've run into an issue using svn relocate on a directory that has relative svn:externals properties on it.  It is similar to the issue that was resolved in Issue 3597 but that only works correctly with a completely checked out version of the repository.  I would like to have this functionality for checking out a single directory in the repository and not have to check out everything. My repository structure looks like this: / /common_files /application1 /application2 ** The common_files directory contains special files that can apply to all applications. ** The application directories each have this svn:externals property on them:    ../common_files/common.file common.file If I check out the entire repository from one URL and do an svn relocate to another URL it correctly updates the URL for the external file but if I only check out application1 from one URL and do an svn relocate to another URL the external file still points to the first URL. This problem only started creeping up because we've changed from using the file protocol to access our repositories to using svnserve.  We use TortoiseSVN 1.6.12 which uses Subversion 1.6.15. Could someone confirm that this is a bug  and direct me to what I should do next to get it resolved? Thank you, -- Trevor Gerbrand, E.I.T.
