[bitbake-devel] [PATCH] fetch2/svn: adds svn --ignore-externals option

[Krzysztof Zawadzki]

Hi,

I think so also. Subversion client is poor in exit statues when there are
issues during svn:externals fetching. I have seen such issues previously.
And it took a while to find there root cause (e.g switching revisions of
svn:externals to non existing paths or revisions and some conflicts showed
up).

@Richard Purdie
It's better to create new patch which will add this option by default, with
additional Docs update? Or update this one?

Best Regards,
Krzysztof Z.
