Since there's a bugfix in 1.10.1 changelog that indicates that code changed in this area, I'm guessing this got introduced because of that bugfix.

The problem is that when I do a checkout of only "immediate children, including folder", it doesn't add the externs. It used to do that. I'm not doing a sparse checkout. I want the externs when I select this option.

If for some reason excluding externs is not the desired default, there needs to be a new option that will include them.

There's a checkbox "omit externals" which is independent of the checkout-depth-combobox.

I have had problems in this area as well. It seems to be impossible to choose which externals to load,

and on a sparse checkout (only some children of a directory) I did not find a way to select whether

externals should be checked out. IIRC they are never checked out for a directory that is not checked out with all it's elements, independent of the "omit" checkbox.

 

And "omit externals" can (AFAIK) not be made sticky. So I don't know how to get a working copy without an external that can be updated simply

with a top-level update.

 

It would be great if all externals could be selected/deselected individually in the "choose items" dialogs (and this decision should be permanent).

 

(Remark: I have just updated from 1.9 to 1.11 today and have not yet checked that detail there)

I have never checked that box, and I still don't get any externals. I used to get them in the previous version of Tortoise.
