problem with svn switch -- relocate

I'm having a problem switching protocols from http to svn+ssh on my WC
The book suggests this command
svn switch --relocate URL
which doesn't work at all, because it outputs the help for switch

The help on the other hand recommends
svn switch --relocate FROM TO [PATH]

So if I type
svn switch --relocate FROM TO svn+ssh://my.server.com/path/to/repository

I get the following:
svn: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.
svn: check_path: problem checking path 
"svn+ssh:\\my.server.com\path\to\repository"

i.e. it changes the directions of all slashes.

Any clue?

BTW the FROM TO syntax is quite confusing. Isn't TO enough?


Thanks.

Andrea

svn switch --relocate http://my.server.com/ svn+ssh://my.server.com/

(Technically, you could just "svn switch --relocate http svn+ssh")

The FROM and TO are intended to mean URLs that you're switching "from" and
"to". So, try something like:

svn switch --relocate http://my.server.com/blah
svn+ssh://my.server.com/path/to/repository
