通过脚本更改SVN外部？

Question

I'd like to change SVN externals via a simple script after I do branching (also via script). My externals are pointing to "trunk" and after I branch they should point to "branches/release/1.0" for example.

Is there a way of editing SVN externals via a script?

Answer 1

You can do it like that:

svn propset svn:externals 'extern_dir https://example.org/svn/trunk/some/path' .

If you need to have multiple extern directories, split it with new line char.
