Hi, is there a possibility to specify a revision for the external reference at the creation of the branch/tag?

Now, setting the checkbox of the external reference, only set the current revision "trunk" in the branch/tag.
Later i've to manually set the revision that i want, in the property of the branch/tag.

Thanks
Stefano

when you check the box, the revision is used at which those externals currently are at.
Because that's the current state. Why would you need another revision?

That’s the problem. It’s the current state of the external, but not the current state of my working copy, so the branch/tags is not correct!
When i’m creating the branch i can’t use the head of the external, because is not tested.

if you create the branch/tag from the wc revision, then the externals are also fixed to their wc revision:

I never try the working copy check. Just one more detail, i’ve to check the working copy and also the explit revision for the externals, in this way all works well.
Thank you
