SVN not updating recursively

A few weeks ago, I checked out our whole SVN repo in --non-recursive mode. Now it seems that when I do a svn up, it does not update the folder recursively.

It's a problem because I'd like to get the changes from my colleagues without having to go through each directory and do a svn up manually...

How can I force the update to be recursive ?

You can also use the command bellow to execute update in all your trunk folders.

find <YOUR_ROOT_DIR> -type d -name trunk -exec svn up {} +

This is particularly useful, if were made many "svn checkouts" inside a root structure, as below.

  • root
    • projectA
      • trunk
    • projectB
      • trunk
    • projectC
      • trunk

In this cases, someone did checkout 3 times, one for each project.

Following should work (with svn 1.7.x or later versions):

svn up --set-depth infinity

on next svn update command provide the parameter --depth:

svn up --depth infinity

on checking out a non-recursive checkout, subversion remembers this setting until you tell it otherwise.

Note: you should not use the parameter -N anymore as it is deprecated. Try to use --depth files or --depth immediates
