So that defines both a directory external E and file external E/file2. In the E working copy E/file2 not a file external, it's just an unversioned file. I can see that that might work, but I believe any support for it in 1.6 was accidental rather than deliberate. > Fetching external item into 'wc/E/file2': > svn: warning: W155022: Cannot insert a file external defined on 'wc' into the > working copy 'wc/E'. > Right now this prevents us from moving to 1.7 since files are missing > from the working copy.

It is a regression, I suppose, but I don't think we deliberately supported it in 1.6. -- uberSVN: Apache Subversion Made Easy http://www.uberSVN.com
