How does this work with tagging or releases? Currently the phar thing isn't tagged at all when building PHP releases, but I assume the svn:externals would be copied as is and might lead to wrong assumptions (like that a newer version was included) meaning we make the tagging more complex or avoiding confusion. Additionally: With the current process I can be assured that the package being used is a released" package, such a linkage might catch a random dev version or bad version numbers or .... johannes -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
