move data around in the repository
Hi,
As I am quite new to subversion and versioning tools, I tend to make
errors, mostly in the layout.
So today I imported a new project into
svn://server/clients/customer/project/, then later I, after I checked
out and did some work on it, that I totaly forgot to create my dev and
stable subfolders, so I am missing a level here.
I played here at home on my win xp box around with moving data around on
the server, read through the docu for branching, but I don't know what
the best way is to solve this:
move all files and directories from
svn://server/clients/customer/project/ to the subfolder
svn://server/clients/customer/project/stable/.
What is the most smartest way? try to move files directly on the server
or checkout a working copy, create there the "stable" subfolder and move
everything (via svn mv) into this subfolder and commit that update and
later re-checkout only the stable subfolder?
is there another "easier" way?
lg, clemens

Unfortunately, no. You'll have to move everything "by hand" to it's new
location. You might want to take a look at RSVN[1], a Python utility
which allows multiple operations to occur on a the repository side as a
single atomic commit, instead of multiple ones, such as in this case.
Hope that helps !

Just to inform, I went this way. I created a stable folder and moved
each entry per hand (lucky is was only 10 files and directories). worked
fine.
