The problem is that svn doesn't have tags, branches, or different projects; it's all just subdirectories with linked files. So you need a good mapping from one to the other. In principle that's simple, it's just that nobody has written the code for a more flexible mapping from svn paths to tags / branch+subpath yet. -- Matthias Urlichs | {M:U} IT Design @ m-u-it.de | smurf@smurf.noris.de Disclaimer: The quote was selected randomly.
