Commit only property changes on root of repo, not files

Viewed 24866

I have an SVN repository with uncommitted changes to files. There is also a change in the svn:externals property on the root folder.

How do I commit the property changes, WITHOUT committing the changes to the files themselves?

If you only want to change the property you can do it against the repository right away, instead of against your working copy.

For example:

svn propset svn:externals "test http://yourhost.com/svn/trunk/module/test/src" --revprop -r HEAD http://yourhost.com/svn/trunk/module

See the SVN book on manipulating properties
