Even with that, however, I still find the lack of a good "what changes have I made to all sub projects" overview to be rather painful. Maybe this is outside the scope of the individual DVC tool and should be handled by an independent tool that aggregates status across projects. How do others handle this kind of situation?
Both the official Plone development and we at Jarn internally moved to http://pypi.python.org/pypi/mr.developer for this use-case. It has a among others a VCS agnostic "./bin/develop status" command and gets rid of svn:externals in favor of managing them inside the buildout configuration. Hanno
