RE: Parmently removing directory from server to make space

[Anil Bakshi <An...@aptaracorp.com>]

Hi Olli,

Thnaks for your support.

I ran into one small issue.

I need to know the folder structure of my dump file. Is their any
command to know that.

For example, my root directory is /E_Learning/Development/

I need to know the folder structure inside Development folder.

I cannot check it through tortoiseSVN because I have deleted few folders
from their and I need to know those deleted folders name.

Here the script normalize-dump.py (in the svn tar file) comes is really
handy. From my own experience with big dumps it is ways faster to
process the dump with this script and then grep for
Node-path/Node-copyfrom-path.


Additional hint for Windows users:
 run svndumpfilter this way: python -u $path/svndumpfilter.py

What do you mean by "deleted", using Subversion or svndumpfilter on
a dump/reload cycle?In the first case just look in the history for the
commits where the folders have been deleted, in the latter case there
is no possibility anymore because the repo didn't ever contain the
folders. But that's what one wanted by using svndumpfilter. ;-)

Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
