The behaviour I see depends on the client, not the server. The 1.8 client shows the external status against the explicit revision, whether the server is 1.7 or 1.8. The 1.7 client shows the external status against HEAD, whether the server is 1.7 or 1.8. This is because the 1.7 client doesn't store the revision in the EXTERNALS table in the working copy. -- Philip Martin | Subversion Committer WANdisco // *Non-Stop Data*
