I (tried to) download and install from svn using the link show in the subversion page. However, none of the tags or branches seem to have the 'sapphire' directory so, of course, it doesn't work.

Am I being stupid?

Any help appreciated.

Ahh.... I wasn't telling the whole truth. I was checking it out using 'git svn' which presumably doesn't speak 'svn:externals'. Sorry - I've never used svn in anger and don't really get it but I assume this is some 'automagic' link to other (external) svn repositiories.

So, I guess the more honest question would be can you check out using git svn and not miss stuff.

I know that might be outside of the remit of this forum though!

Cool.. git-me-up looks like it might be the answer.

I'll give it a try and let you know how it works out.

Thanks
