Moving SVN to another server !!
HI,
I have moved my existing svn server to another server.
192.168.2.11/testing -- is the old server that has testing repository.Since i am setting up a new server and want all the data in testing repos to be available in new server is there a way i can import/dump the data without any revision history so that in the new server the revision should start from scratch.
thanks and regards

Hey Ryan,
Well it sure does work and solves the purpose.I was a bit apprehensive earlier thinking it mite just keep the revision numbers but this way it starts the revision from the begining..
thanks and regards

Note that svn export will not preserve any properties you may have
set up in the old repository. eol-styles, keywords, mime-types,
externals, all gone. Not so with svnadmin dump -rHEAD as I suggested,
which preserves all of that.

1. Export all of your old repository into a temporary directory.
svn export
2. Create a new repository on your new server.
3. Import this temporary directory into your new repository.
svn import
4. Checkout new working copy from your new repository.
peace

1. Export all of your old repository into a temporary directory.
svn export <old_repos_url> <temp_path>
2. Create a new repository on your new server.
3. Import this temporary directory into your new repository.
svn import <temp_path> <new_repos_url>
4. Checkout new working copy from your new repository.
peace

I think that's:
svnadmin create /path/to/newrepo
svnadmin dump -rHEAD /path/to/oldrepo | svnadmin load /path/to/newrepo
