(My problem was with "in the repo", which could mean all three of the SVN properties, the debian/svn-deblayout file, and .svn/deb-layout. I prefer using WC for the .svn/deb-layout file.) > This would also mean that svn-bp would be slower :-( sice would do > the processing everytime the package is built. I don't think this is something to optimize for; this won't take more than seconds; in comparisons to building a .diff.gz or starting a pbuilder, this is nothing. > What do you think about an option to do what you describe on request? > So you will do: > svn-buildpackage --svn-reconfigure > when you change the overrides or you want to import settings from > the properties... Unfortunately, that's not anywhere close to what I want. I want all my working copies to be affected when I change the global settings to match my needs. I want all people sharing the same repository to use the tagUrl definition when I add it. I don't want to have to do two operations just to change settings -- what if I forget? -- Loïc Minier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
