Description webmaestro 2015-05-01 17:42:48 UTC
My SVN repository has multiple 'sub' repositories (e.g., /repos/enterprise/conf, /repos/enterprise/lib, /repos/websites/example1, /repos/websites/example2, ), each with trunk, tags & branches... (e.g., /repos/enterprise/conf/branches, /repos/enterprise/conf/tags, /repos/enterprise/conf/trunk, etc.).

So frequently, I'll accidentally choose the wrong sub-repo and Netbeans complains:

###
org.apache.subversion.javahl.ClientException: E195012: 'http://svn.freedom.com/repos/enterprise/conf/branches/cl-microsite-20150428' shares no common ancestry with '/Users/stimpy/Sites/project/lib'
###

Is it possible to limit the listing in the 'Switch [repo]' dialog to display only those  repos with a common ancestry?

Thanks!
