To whom it may concern, Is it possible to put one directory in a repo on a mounted directory? We need this for several reasons: 1. sensitive files must be kept on encrypted file system, but to put the entire repo is too slow; 2. sometimes we want to test different versions without checking out the entire repo; 3. we want to keep large data files in the repo on SSD instead of HDD
I know one solution is to use external link, but that requires multiple repo and extra work for svnadmin. When I searched I found https://stackoverflow.com/questions/24850844/follow-symlinks-in-svn, but when I tried I got: svn: E000018: Can't move '...' to '...': Invalid cross-device link It seems that since 1.7.0 svn has stopped following mount or link. Is there a solution for this? thanks, --Zhao
