I've just found this old checkin: http://www.mail-archive.com/zope-checkins@zope.org/msg04196.html . Can someone please explain me very briefly (or point out some documentation), why is it better to store a copy of bootstrap.py in every package instead of using svn:external?
There's no real better way in this case; it's just a matter of style. An svn:external has the advantage of always pointing to the latest version. But some people prefer not having externals at all. They prefer the local copy. That works equally well, since the bootstrap file is rarely ever changing. Hanno
