How can I check out only certain subfolders from a branch in Bazaar? Example:

Given the branch consisting of:

/myapp /myapp/doc /myapp/bin /my /myapp/bunch-o-crap

how do I create a versioned working copy of just

/myapp/doc /myapp/bin

You can't.

Distributed version control software like git, mercurial and bzr do work on the complete repository as a single unit. This is required for storing the history of moved files etc properly.

  • Yes, but once I have cloned or branched the repo, it must be possible to selectively create my working copy..? Or do I really have to have every single file in the entire repo in my working copy? – Frank Brenner Oct 28 '11 at 19:02
  • Ah, using 'bzr view' lets me only see the files I want to work with. – Frank Brenner Oct 31 '11 at 11:26
