How to do a “svn copy without externals” ?

svn,svn-externals,svn-propset

You are misunderstanding what --ignore-externals is for on the copy subcommand. This flag only affects working-copy operations.

Any way to specify the svn revision of externals in a Jenkins job?

SVN externals and tagging

Download from external subversion repository and merge own code

svn,merge,tortoisesvn,svn-externals

How to correctly set an external path on SVN?

svn,tortoisesvn,svn-externals

This is the dialog from TortoiseSVN that you're having difficulties with: Here, Local Path refers to the file or folder relative to the folder that has this externals property set on it. So, if I had a folder at ^/trunk/Externals that I wanted to exist here as well, I'd set...
