[SVN] Create new externals and move current trunks-devs/users

Hi, I think we need an easy way for everyone to build only the product he's working on. Thus I'd like to propose the creation of a new svn:externals for the platform only and to move externals in a specific dir: /svnroot/xwiki |_ externals/ |_ trunks-devs/ |_ trunks-users/ |_ trunks-platform-devs/ |_ trunks-platform-users/ This will achieve the following use cases: Use case 1: I'm working on product XX and I'm not making any change to the platform - checkout just the product's trunk. For example /svnroot/xwiki/xwiki- products/xwiki-watch/trunk Use case 2: I'm working on both the platform and XWiki Enterprise but not the other products - checkout /svnroot/xwiki/externals/trunks-platform-devs/ - checkout XWiki Enterprise: /svnroot/xwiki/xwiki-products/xwiki- enterprise/trunk Caveat: you can't build both at the same time but you can build each one with a single command. Use case 3: I'm working on everything - checkout /svnroot/xwiki/externals/trunks-devs/ Another option would be to create one externals per product but it's a little bit of a pain to maintain. It's possible though. Actually this would allow to fine tune the build to that only platform components required for the product are built. For example, only the plugin used by the product and only the applications built by the product would be built. Actually this probably makes sense. In that case we would have: /svnroot/xwiki |_ externals/ |_ trunks-devs/ |_ trunks-users/ |_ trunks-platform-devs/ |_ trunks-platform-users/ |_ trunks-enterprise-devs/ |_ trunks-enterprise-users/ |_ trunks-enterprise-manager-devs/ |_ trunks-enterprise-manager-users/ |_ trunks-watch-devs/ |_ trunks-watch-users/ |_ trunks-curriki-devs/ |_ trunks-curriki-users/ A last option would be to put the full platform under the same trunk/ but I don't think this is right as we should be able to release platform modules separately. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent
