There already were comments on the usefulness of a complete checkout. I mainly find (resp. found, in the days of CVS, without the path-emulated tags/branches) it helpful to be able to search the whole repo for usages of my APIs. Anyway, one way to not have to script this would be to have a separate tree that pulls in all the interesting parts as svn:externals. That way, you get easy updates; in exchange for needing some care when committing. (I don't suppose you actually *want* the ../trunk/.. in the paths?) Andreas -- "Totally trivial. Famous last words."
