I can say that supporting externals should be a configuration option. However, there's not really a good way to make svnwcsub deal with externals because for it to really work properly it needs to know about changes on the external. You're pointing at a tag so I'm guessing you probably don't care about updates happening on the external itself. I.E. when you change it it's likely to be to change to external definition. There are a couple of alternative configurations that might be helpful for you for the time being that I put on the bug. > The question is how can an API consumer resolve the externals ? Not sure why that's important, svnwcsub doesn't use our APIs and just drives the client.
