Am I misunderstanding the purpose of the TRAC svn:externals section? Should 
I be able to browse the source for an external svn property from a TRAC 
project when the svn repo to which TRAC project points contains an external 
svn property?

 

Or is the TRAC svn:externals section used to point to a different TRAC 
project associated with an svn file or folder listed under the TRAC 
project’s browse source? 

I have 2 svn repos. I use the same svn access control group to give users 
the same access to the 2 repos.

 

SVN repo1 *https://<my_server>/svn/AAA* <https://%3cmy_server%3e/svn/ares>

This has svn folders under it, ws/sa/BBB

 

SVN repo2 *https://<my_server>/svn/ BBB * 
<https://%3cmy_server%3e/svn/%20B777X%20>

          This has an svn external property which points to a subfolder 
under AAA, *https://<my_server>/svn/AAA/ws/sa/ BBB * 
<https://%3cmy_server%3e/svn/ares/workspaces/systemarchive/b777x>

 

In TortoiseSVN, I can navigate through repo1, *https://<my_server>/svn/AAA 
and see repo2* <https://%3cmy_server%3e/svn/AAA%20and%20see%20repo2> 
subfolders starting at https://<my_server>/svn/AAA/ws/sa/ BBB.

 

I created a TRAC project, https://<my_server>/trac/ BBB. 

 

Because TRAC projects seem to want to point to top-level svn folders and 
not lower-level svn subfolders, I have it pointing to repo2, 
https://<my_server>/svn/ BBB.

          

In the trac.ini file:

 

[repositories]

BBB.url = *https://<my_server>/svn/BBB* <https://%3cmy_server%3e/svn/B777X>

 

What I want to be able to do is in the TRAC BBB project, browse source so 
it navigates into the repo1 subfolder starting at ws/sa/BBB. I therefore 
added the following to the trac.ini file:

 

[svn:externals]

1 = svn:https://guswla02.utcapp.com/svn/AAA/ws/sa/BBB 
https://guswla02.utcapp.com/trac/BBB/browser/$path?rev=$rev

 

When I open the BBB TRAC project and browse source, it shows the text, 
“Property svn:externals set to 
*https://guswla02.utcapp.com/svn/AAA/ws/sa/BBB* 
<https://guswla02.utcapp.com/svn/ares/workspaces/systemarchive/B777X> BBB”

 

Note – there is no link, it is just plain text. I cannot browse the source 
for the external svn property. Is this possible? If so, how?
