and you forgot: svn creates a copy from symlinks as well (that is: if a symlink was checked into the repository, and you check it out on w32, you will get 2 copies of the same file, changing (and committing) one, will have an effect on both; all in all: symlinks ought to be transparent) fgmad IOhannes _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
