Subversion relocate
Hi,
I'm testing moving subversion repositories around. TortoiseSVN seems to
work fine, but I'm missing something for my linux clients.
Old repos:
[root@ubiq-dell27-cen pbx]# svn info
Path: .
URL: http://ubiq-serv2/svn/tools/pbx
Repository Root: http://ubiq-serv2/svn/tools
I run :
svn switch --relocate http://ubiq-serv2/svn/docs/tools/pbx
https://testserv.ubiquisys.local/svn/tools/pbx
Which gives no output (confirmation or failure). But the svn info output
still shows the repository URL as pointing to ubiq-serv2
I read the example at http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.0/re27.html, but
don't see what I'm missing.
Thanks,
Adrian

Checkouts from the new URL are all ok... However the "new url" server is
a clone of the old, albeit accessed via httpS instead of http, so the
UUID is the same. I know that the relocate wont initiate any contact to
new or old URL.
I tried adding a file after the switch and committing, and it added it
to the old repos.
Should I expect any output on a successful switch ??

That sure looks correct. My guess would be a bad new url or a
permissions problem on the workspace. Is the workspace on a local disk
or mounted share? Does the user trying to do the switch own the files
in the workspace?
I'd try to see if you can check out to a new directory using the new
url? If it doesn't work there either then the url is the problem.
Other problems could be lack of auth to the new repository or using a
wicked old client that doesn't support switch with relocate.
The only problem I see is that I would expect any of these to fail
silently.

Thanks Miguel,
I am switching from http to HTTPS. I also tried a commit, as I
understand the switch command itself doesn't initiate any connections to
either server.. but the commit went to the old server..

Hi Adrian,
I had a similar problem once. I needed to change the protocol for my
repository. What I did was:
svn switch --relocate svn://server/trunk
http://server/projectFolder/trunk
and then a commit afterwards.
After that doing svn info showed me the correct URL path for my
repository.
Give it a try and tell me how it shows the svn info.
Regards,
Miguel Rentes

oh on last thing
I didn't see a path to the local workspace at the end of your command.
If you ran it from within the workspace then you don't. Need the path
because '.' Is implied. If you ran it from outside. Of the workspace
dir then you need to add the workspace dir to the command.
Svn co oldurl workdir
Svn switch --relocate old url newurl workdir

That's the only purpose of svn switch --relocate, in fact. The UUIDs
must be the same or you cannot relocate.

Yes, the URL remains http://ubiq-serv2... Instead of
https://testserv....
I wouldn't expect the UUID to be an issue though... as surely one
purpose of this is to relocate to the same repository, but at a
different URL..
The same test in TortoiseSVN using the same two URLs/repos/servers works
ok.

If it is the same uuid perhaps not. If you check it with svn info and
the url is updated then the command worked.
Didn't. You say that the url was still the old when you checked with
svn info after the switch?
