Guys,

With Dan's last use of svn:externals to replicate copies of the 
documentation resources (images and the DTD files) means that an 
"svn up ." takes more than 15 minutes on my system - each directory 
query takes between 15 to 20 seconds, and there are 63 directories 
queried..

Since each directory is just a copy of the same source directory, can't 
we instead have a script (or some other copying tool) to just copy the 
3 directories (docbkx/dtd-4.5, docbkx/style and docbkx/images) into 
each destination?

Thus, I am requesting that only the main resource directory is fetched 
from subversion (into, for example, trunk/src/docbkx/*), and some 
other tool copy it from the local location into the required local 
dependent project directories? 

I would settle for a simple (shell/command) script, but I realize this 
could become a maintenance nightmare - better if maven manages 
the copying, is this possible?


Regards,
Kevin
