About to break working copies.
Hi all,
I have two subversion source trees with two different sets of changes in
them. Both sets of changes will break existing working copies.
Change 1)
Rename base files in the .svn adminstrative area.
Change 2)
Rename the `ancestor' field in a entry to `url'.
The plan is that I will:
- commit change 1
- update it into my working copy containing chage 2
- resolve any conflicts
- build and run the test suite
- commit change 2
- post a note here saying that it is done, and including a script to
migrate your working copy to the new format.
In other words, don't update quite yet. Be patient.

Okay, both commits are now in. Attached is a script to be run from
your working copy root which will adjust your .svn directories to match
what the wc library now expects to be there.
