SVN: update working copy to exclude externals with TortoiseSVN?

Is there a way to update a working copy to exclude externals using TortoiseSVN?

I have a working copy that I checked with external ones. I am doing some updates for my included paths and now have these external files in another project. I want to update the current working copy to exclude external elements - substantially removing external ones from my local copy.

Due to mountain changes in my working copy, simply deleting and re-checking, excluding external ones, is not an effective option.

I am using Tortoise SVN 1.7.2 using the 1.7.x format.

EDIT: Well, it seems like what I'm looking for is impossible. It seems that “SVN Update” will always be updated using external files, even if the repository is deleted using “Omit Externals” (--ignore-externals).

EDIT 2: Ok, found a solution. This does not seem to be a way to tag it with each repository. But globally: "TortoiseSVN" => "Settings" => "Advanced" set the "EnableExternals" to false. This will stop "Update SVN" from updating external. It looks like a forced external update, I need to go to "Upgrade to version ..." This is doable, as it is less likely. (I have 5 checks, and only 1 requires external ones, and only when the update is updated. 2 you need them only once during the check)

svn up --ignore-externals should complete the task, you can manually delete the external folders and then
