This email on users@ made me realize we have not added this option in Subclipse. Looking at the JavaHL source it looks like it has not been exposed via JavaHL either (so we could not add the option in Subclipse even if we want to).

Can you provide a reproduction recipe, starting from an empty repository? In a quick test I couldn't trigger the error you describe. http://subversion.apache.org/docs/community-guide/issues#reporting-bugs Thanks Daniel Joel Low wrote on Sat, Feb 25, 2012 at 11:38:12 +0800: > Hello, > > I'm trying to do a remote-URL/remote-URL merge (for vendor drops) into my > working copy which contains externals (for the binaries).
