Problem with svnlook

[Amith Varghese <am...@xalan.com>]

I try running (on Windows):

C:\>snvlook log -r 759 /trunk/scripts/interfaces/test.pl

and get the following:

svnlook: Can't open file '\trunk\scripts\interfaces\test.pl\format' :  
The system cannot find the path specified.

I've searched the archives and don't see why I may get this error.   
Some others had problems with spaces in the repo path name or with the  
argument order swapped, however I don't think I suffer from either of  
these.  I'm using this in a post-commit hook and it worked at one  
point, but now it has stopped.

Please let me know if any additional information is needed

Thanks
Amith

That's pretty much everything you need to know about the problem:

svnlook command /path/to/repos [options] [args]

That's /path/to/repos not /path/in/repos.  You are passing it not the 
path to the repository but rather a path inside the repository...
