SVN Externals

You can point your repo to a trunk, branch or tag of another repo. Do this using svn externals On a pc you can right click on a repo folder, you'll see a tortoise svn tab. Click that tab, hit properties and you can add a property such as an svn:external Can define like this:   myExternal https://11.11.111.111:1111/repo/branches/mybranch OR   myExternal https://11.11.111.111:1111/repo/trunk Now the folder myExternal will point to that other repo and will have a local copy of its code (whihc you can commit to if you have permissions) You can also include a specific rev number Just svn update you local repo to pickup latest for yours and any externals
