Yeah. SVN’s ability to do that is not experimental. I’m hoping that they make that feature much easier

One thing I like about SVN that, at least in the past, was not easy with Git is checking out sub directories.

One thing I do is check out svn+ssh://svn/home/svn/configs/server/etc and copy the .svn file over to /etc so that I can check in changes from the actual directory on my servers at home. I never found a good way to do that on Git. But, admittedly, I haven’t looked in a couple years.

What are you looking to automate? Home Assistant does a lot of things that could have been done with IFTTT.

I personally like the Zigbee2MQTT add on. And their documentation is great (zigbee2mqtt.io). Also, check out digiblur’s content on Youtube.
