Hi everyone,

I am working with this repository which has several directories, each directory containing the relevant files and subdirectories. In this repository structure these files are kept in different directories, but in reality the files and subdirectories fall in the same local directory. So, I checked out one directory first into this local directory and things went well, but when I tried checking out the second directory tree into this same local directory svn said it could not do this. Is there any way around this? I tried checking out the second directory to another location and then using links to put everything together, but the application appears not to like that.

Many thanx in advance :)

I believe svn and cvs checkout and checkin prevents 'mixing' directories in order to preserve the directory tree structure.

Assuming the 'several directories' represent 'project roots', svn prevents you from merging these as otherwise established path references within and between them will break and be invalid.

So rather than checkout subtrees from the root (does svn allow this?) you may want to avoid this.

My 2 cents.
