New repository, how to ... ?

(1/2) > >>

gd_on:
I tried to synchronize my "old" svn berlios configuration with the new one on sf, but i don't succeed. Is is actually reserved for developers ?
I tried several things in relocating svn configuration, but obtained different errors : access forbidden, ...trunk is not the repository root, etc...
Could you be more precise on how to relocate, if it's possible for a "standard" user (not a developer), having only http access (svn protocol is not authorized in our company).

Thanks

If you don't want to do a fresh checkout, you should use svn relocate: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/svn.ref.svn.c.relocate.html .

As far as I know, there is also a relocate command in TortoisSVN, the switch command is deprecated since svn 1.7 : http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/svn.ref.svn.c.switch.html .

Relocate does not work as the ID of the repo has changed. It is meant if you e.g. change the server's name/IP, but keep the code-base. You REALLY need to do a clean fresh checkout.

Use a Sync tool of your choice to merge changes afterwards OR create a large patch before from the old working copy and apply it to the new working copy.

Effectively, I had also this problem of ID.
So, I made a complete new checkout and it's ok now.

Oops, not exactly Ok because there is a problem in fortranproject cbp(s) : compilation of the new tab2space is missing !
Simply add it, and everything is OK again.

On berlios there was a page where it was possible to have a quick look of differences between versions : http://svn.berlios.de/wsvn/codeblocks/?op=log&
(containing the same informations than in svn logs)
Is there an equivalent on SF ?
