So far this doesn't quite work due to

(a) doesn't allow a . in the svn:externals destniation
    e.g. . svn://svnanon.samba.org/samba/branches/SAMBA_3_0
    won't work
(b) You cannot do something like in the repo root
    'trunk svn://svnanon.samba.org/samba/branches/SAMBA_3_0'
    and then call svn co svn+ssh://..../trunk

Any ideas?




cheers, jerry
