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

[Mark Hatle]

Ping, anything further happen with this?  (Accepted/rejected/etc)?

I didn't see any discussion after Feb 19th, but I'm still trying to resolve a
customer's issue that appears to be directly related to this.. but I don't have
enough SVN knowledge to say if this is good or bad.
