Catch output of "svn up" into a file and see whether some changes are mentioned in it. By the way, this command lists all externals as well. If you want to trigger a build when something changes in repository - use a post-commit hook at the svn server. One option is to use the hook to publish info into mailing list and watch that mailing list. ;) Best regards, Konstantin Kolinko
