Yes, I understand the export function. I want functionality for release management into test and production environments.
For these environments I have a few requirements: Files in these environments will NEVER be edited For new releases I will need to perform an update to revision, which will add, update and delete needed files I want as small of a .svn directory as possible I'm fairly certain that this functionality is currently not present, but I think there are many installations where this would be valuable. I'd like to create an enhancement request, but according to the website it was recommended that I post to this mailing list first. -----Original Message----- From: Cooke, Mark [mailto:mark.co...@siemens.com] Sent: Wednesday, December 11, 2013 1:44 AM To: Mark Kneisler; users@subversion.apache.org Subject: RE: Update-Only Checkout Enhancement > -----Original Message----- > From: Mark Kneisler [mailto:mark.kneis...@tceq.texas.gov] > Sent: 11 December 2013 01:45 > > I have several environments where I'd like to use a SVN checkout, but > where I'd never ever want to make changes to the files or perform a > commit.

I think Thorsten just beat me to it...
