relocate problem
I had a svn repository which I am trying to move to a new repository. the
old url is https://domain.net/wwwroot/jirareport the new url is
https://domain.net/dotrepo/dotmarketing/jirareporter I am getting teh
following
C:\apps\apache-tomcat-5.5.17\jirareporter1>svn switch --relocate
https://svn.dotmarketing.net/wwwroot/jirareporter
https://svn.dotmarketing.net/dotrepo/dotmarketing/jirareporter
svn: 'https://svn.dotmarketing.net/dotrepo/dotmarketing/jirareporter' is not
the root of the repository
What can I do. On the old repo wwwroot was that root and on the new repo
dotrepo is the root.
Thanks

One thing up front: I think this only works if you moved the repository and
not also reorganised it using dumpfilter or similar things, but I'm not sure.
Anyhow, the only thing that needs to be replaced is the root of the
repository, not the path within. So all you need is to
svn switch --relocate <OLD_ROOT> <NEW_ROOT> .
regardless of the fact that '.' is not a working copy of the repository's
root. For your example, simply remove the trailing 'jirareporter' from both
URLs and it should work.
