Find/Check out as... and svn:externals [message #38064]

Hi,

I want to organize dependencies in my projects using svn:externals. For
example, I use a folder "ExternalDependencies" and set the dependencies
as svn:externals property on this folder - works quite well and the
repository browser shows the links to the correct projects.

What I want to do now is "Check out as..." on the folder
"ExternalDependencies" -> "Find projects in the children of the selected
resource" (Ignore Externals is unchecked) - but unfortunately "There are
no projects found". Bug or Feature?

I debugged a little and it seems that the external projects are
recognized but the .project files are not found...

Regards,
Alex

Hello Alexander,

When we search .project files we don't look at externals. Currently the
process of searching projects in children isn't fast and consulting them
will encrease the time.
So as a workaround you can directly checkout project(from externals) from
SVN Repositories view.
