Can i move the tags directory?
Hi,
I am trying to re-factor my repository. Here is the current structure:
software
/branches
/tags
/trunk
Can I re-factor into the followings?
software
/product_a
/branches
/tags
/trunk
How? I am concerning the tags directory. Can i just "move" all three
directories? What is the best way to do so?
Thanks.
B.

On some systems it has to be taken into account that the repository
structure may be reflected into some hook scripts. This way it can be
possible to create tags but not to modify or delete them afterwards.
If the OP set-up his Subversion server by himself I am very sure that
no such means have been implemented. ;-)

There are no "special" directories in a Subversion repository - tags,
trunk & branches are just a naming convention and you could call them
Manny, Moe & Jack and Subversion wouldn't care. So just move them like
any other file or directory.

Just create the product_a directory, then svn mv the other 3 into it.
