When I try to update c::b, I get:Updating '.':
Fetching external item into 'src/plugins/contrib/FortranProject':
External at revision 235.
svn: warning: W205011: Error handling externals definition for 'src/plugins/contrib/PythonPlugins':

svn: E205011: Failure occurred processing one or more externals definitions
Well, there is no trunk on GitHub. The clone url is: https://github.com/spillz/codeblocks-python.git
Is there a trick I didn't know? I mean, besides fixing the external?
Thanks alot!
I did some research, and the github documentation says, that the url does not end in /trunk.
So I changed the URL, and tried to checkout directly:
trunk/src/plugins/contrib # svn checkout --depth empty https://github.com/spillz/codeblocks-python/ PythonPlugins
svn: E170013: Unable to connect to a repository at URL 'https://github.com/spillz/codeblocks-python'
svn: E175003: The server at 'https://github.com/spillz/codeblocks-python' does not support the HTTP/DAV protocol
This seemed odd, so I downgraded subversion to 1.9.7 (had 1.11.0 beforehand) and now it works:
Updating '.':

Updated external to revision 400.
At revision 11511.
I tested again after reverting the external url, and that worked, too:
Conclusion: The subversion version 1.11.0 is either unable to handle externals to github, or my installation had a problem.
