Hi Hartmut, You'd think that would work, but it didn't! Tortoise svn client is still showing the old externals URLs in the properties dialog box, but if I look at the same properties in the repo-browser it shows the new URLs.
It's like tortoise has some data cached somewhere which it's refusing to update. On Monday, November 16, 2020 at 3:34:58 PM UTC H.
