This works and is a good solution from a testing standpoint... but I don't support it for purely selfish reasons; it breaks my "CVS HEAD" use case. :-) I'd still like to have a 'trunk' from which I can 'svn update'.
1. Why can't you do it from root? 2. With independent development and svn externals you don't need to do it as frequently. you do update in your local directory and it updates all you depend on. Gennadiy
