> That svn checkExternals attribute of 2.8.2 doesn't work for our projects. It can neither deal with relative svn externals (introduced in svn 1.5 http://subversion.tigris.org/svn_1.5_releasenotes.html) nor recursive externals.
> SVN externals in relative URL: 
> Cruisecontrol expects absolute URLs such as "http://company.internal/svn/dev/branches/product product". But we have relative externals like "../../../../../../../../product product".
> Recursive SVN externals
> CruiseControl cannot deal with recursive externals, i.e. svn externals within some directory which itself is brought in by svn externals.
> I have the patch to 2.8.2 ready. Probably it can not be applied to the trunk directly. But the patching work should be trivial.
