Depends... I have another question... what if I want to fork/branch (whatever one calls it) other folders outside of the /trunk/pd hierarchy? CVS makes it easy to branch individual files, or specific subfolders without necessarily branching everything containing it.
Branches can be wildly different than the trunk, but a fork is fork, surely.
So, how does that change how the SVN is to be managed? What are you
trying to say?
I was just saying that desiredata changes fundamental parts of the pd
infrastructure as far as I can tell, and so as hans pointed out,
possibly does not belong where it is now in svn.
How is that supported by SVN ?
Tags, AFAIK.
So, if tags can fulfill the same purpose as branches do, why do we
have branches as plain folders? I don't think that this is the answer.
I think you might benefit from reading the redbean book:
And look at the difference between tags and branches. Everything in
svn -is- a folder in any case.
