Demo in AWDWR.pdf of add_price migration

Rails

I’m in the process of going through the beta version of AWDWR. I came to
the example which uses ‘BigDecimal’ and skipped ahead to install Edge
Rails.
I don’t know if this is a question for Dave T. or one of the Rails
developers.

On page 236 of the beta version of the .pdf:

After successfully installing Subversion v. 1.1.4 (‘make check’ reports
all tests successful), when I attempt to run the command:

svn propset svn:externals
“rails http://dev.rubyonrails.org/svn/rails/trunk” vendor

(yes, on the same line, without the backslash)
I get the following response:

“svn: ‘vendor’ is not a working copy”

I don’t know what I should replace the ‘vendor’ tag with. Please let me
know if there is a simple fix or what the tag that should replace the
‘vendor’ tag should be.
Thanks for the great book and the early look.

TIA for any and all responses.

this error can occur when your project is not in svn. either make it
svn,
check it out and try again or just
svn co http://dev.rubyonrails.org/svn/rails/trunk vendor/rails
in your app directory. this checks out a working copy (if i remind the
syntax corectly, if not, see the svn docs and let me know)
