Setting depth of working copy [message #496809]

Hi,

I just installed subversive and used it to check out source from my repository. Because I didn't want to fetch all feature branches, I selected to only checkout immediate children. I planned to set the working coopy depth of those branches I need to work with after I received the structure and then to update them.

But now, I cant find a way to change the depth of the working copy. I found a dropdown box to select a depth in the "update to revision..." dialog, but that only triggers a

Quote:

"svn up --set-depth infinity"

can anyone tell me how to do it please?

Hello Benjamin,

Subversive currently doesn't support this option, I created a bug on tracker
for it: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=295217 (you can add
yourself to CC to tracker bug activity).
As a workaround you can set this option from external client, e.g. svn
command line client.

Thanks.

I see. Thanks for your reply and for creating the ticket. Smile

Setting the depth of the working copy using an external client worked for me.
