I don't know. But when choosing a system I wouldn't chose SVN for svn:externals. Git has submodules which I find nicer.

I don't think Git submodules were added until 2009 (at least that's what the commit history looks like). We deployed with SVN at least six years ago, long before git could compete.

Still, I would like to use git as my svn client, but it's just not a suitable replacement without externals handled nicely.
