SVN Copy Command
Hi,
I apologize for resending this if anyone has already received it. I sent this prior to subscribing for the service and maybe that's why I haven't received a response yet. I am really having trouble with svn copy, not sure what i'm doing wrong, but i'll do my best to explain how I got there.
1) Opened up svn-acl.txt (dir permission file) and added the following:
[groups]
team1 = rachel, harry, sally
[ClientA:/]
@team1 = rw
[ClientA:/branches/mybranch]
ross = rw
2) Subversion.conf - This file points to the "Repositories" directory which will be the place I store each repository per project
3) SVN-Auth-File - This of course has the U/N and P/W for each of the 4 team members
4) Opened up a CMD window and typed the following:
a) mkdir C:\Repositories\ClientA
b) svnadmin create C:\Repositories\ClientA
c) svn mkdir http://my.url.com/svn/ClientA/Trunk (message: "Committed revision 1")
d) svn mkdir http://my.url.com/svn/ClientA/Tags (message: "Committed revision 2")
e) svn mkdir http://my.url.com/svn/ClientA/Branches (message: "Committed revision 3")
This is as far as I get before receiving any errors. When I try to run the following, I get an error:
svn copy http://my.url.com/svn/ClientA/Trunk http://my.url.com/svn/Branches/mybranch -m "Creating mybranch in the Branches directory"
svn: COPY of Branches/mybranch: 400 Bad Request (http://my.url.com)
svn: Your commit message was left in a temporary file:
svn: 'svn-commit.8.tmp
I think that I followed the directions from the svn book by using the example they showed the long way and the short way of doing it in the Using Branches / Creating a Branch in Chapter 4. If anyone out there has had the same issue and can offer some advice, I would greatly appreciate it. I am running Windows XP Pro, Apache 2.059, Subversion (Latest), and Subclipse (Latest). Everything I tried was through the CMD line, I've also tried with subclipse and have had no luck. Matter of fact, I get errors when I try to copy from the trunk to a branch or just copying back and forth doesn't work at all.
If you need more information, please let me know and I will do my best to provide.
Thanks,
H Jaber

Likely because you are missing "ClientA" in the branch URL.

Generally, you'll have to be patient to wait for an answer from this
list: you're not guaranteed to receive one within hours, but if you
haven't received one in a week, reposting may help.
First time posts from non-subscribers have to be moderated, so that's
why your mail didn't appear on the list yet. Please leave some time
for moderation. It's a task executed by volunteers, meaning that they
won't be sitting 24h a day to moderate new mails.
Other than that, welcome to the list!
Bye,
Erik.

Your destination URL is missing "ClientA" component.

It sounds like Hari Kodungallur and Toby Thain have already found the
answer (missing "ClientA" in URL) to the question you asked.
But I'll just add a comment:
You probably should have your "trunk", "tags" and "branches"
directories be all lower-case. Although everything will of course
work with the first letters capitalized, the convention is to have
them all lower-case, and some tools that know about that convention
may work better if you stick to the standard.
Best,
-Karl
