Change a file's repository path?
Is there anyway to change a file's repository path?
I have two repositories and due to a stray soft link a couple of files are pointed at the wrong repository.
Thanks-- Mike

That surprises me, but I can still only suggest to check out a new
working copy.

Foo's url.
If I do a commit all but two of the files head for foo's trunk... just these two head for bar's trunk. Always the same two.

Run "svn info" in the directories of the affected files. Does the
repository URL reflect repository foo or repository bar?

There are only two files under foo that are affected, the other 480 files in foo behave just fine.

Have you tried just checking out new working copies? It sounds like
your foo working copy thinks it is a working copy of bar. Just check
out new ones, manually move over your changed files, commit, and
throw away the old working copies.

Can you elaborate on the problem? Are we talking about files within the
repository directory, such as the revision and revision property files
in db/revs and db/revprops, or what? If they're in the wrong place,
just move them to the right place, although I don't see how the got to
the wrong place initially.
