Hi Thorsten Thamks for your reply. I am receiving "Not a working copy" error in svn while creating external reference in svn. Isn't that mean external requires working copy? I am 100% sure that the folder in which i was trying to create the external reference are svn repositories, i even committed some code in it. Still i am getting the error said above, If svn doesn't require working copy, then assist me in resolving the issue.
