svnadmin stumbles on multiple directory levels..

[Bob Gustafson <bo...@rcnChicago.com>]

According to the FAQ:

"It depends upon the projects involved. If the projects are related, and
are likely to share data, then it's best to  create one repository with
several subdirectories like this:

   $ svnadmin create /repo/svn
   $ svn mkdir file:///repo/svn/projA
   $ svn mkdir file:///repo/svn/projB
   $ svn mkdir file:///repo/svn/projC
"

Attempting to do this - see below (note that /usr/local/src exists, but
repo/svn does not exist at the moment. I am running (more or less) RedHat
7.3 with the most current (??) subversion sucked from tigris a few minutes
ago with svn update (and config/make/install)

This may be more or less the same problem that mkdir has when you try to
create more than one directory level in one command.
e.g., [root@hoho0 svn_new]# mkdir whap/whop
      mkdir: cannot create directory `whap/whop': No such file or directory
      [root@hoho0 svn_new]#



[root@hoho0 src]# svnadmin create /usr/local/src/repo/svn
svn: No such file or directory
svn: svn_io_dir_make: can't create directory '/usr/local/src/repo/svn'


Making the initial directory seems to help

[root@hoho0 src]# mkdir repo
[root@hoho0 src]# svnadmin create /usr/local/src/repo/svn
[root@hoho0 src]#

Yes, the top level directory must exist for you to create a repo in it.

	It may look like I'm just sitting here doing nothing,
   but I'm really actively waiting for all my problems to go away.

	 If you're not having fun, you're not doing it right!
