Adam, <br>
You could use svn:external tricks, to preserve space but get a specific
version. <br>

one macro, you could copy that into your new package, modify it, and
just include it in your final URDF file. <br>

The pr2_component_descriptions package does this to make URDF's for PR2
components and sub-assemblies. <br>

I'm not sure how to solve the problem of loading the pr2.urdf.xacro
file at startup, that will depend on how you want to set up your
configuration.<br>

<br>
Say I want to modify pr2_description. Also say I want to check my
modifications into a repository for easy access. As far as I can tell,
I need to check in the entire pr2_description folder into the repo in
order to be able to easily check it out on another comp and have it
work immediately as an overlay. The mesh and various other files are
rather large, at 57MB total.<br>
<br>
Is there any easy way for me to overlay the pr2.urdf.xacro file, and
maybe also some custom .urdf.xacro files for sensors, without keeping
multiple copies of the meshes floating around? It seems like right now
if a launch file, such as pr2_bringup.launch, can find pr2.urdf.xacro
in a custom copy of pr2_description, then by definition it will also
look in that same path when looking for the meshes, etc.<br>
<br>
Any ideas on a better way to do this?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Adam<br>
