Help Setting bugtraq properties.

[Eric Berry <el...@gmail.com>]

Hello,
   I'm trying to set the bugtraq properties on a remote repository.

When I use:
[code]
svn ps bugtraq:url -R "http://bugs/browse/%BUGID%"
https://subversion/project/trunk
[/code]

I get this error:
[quote]
svn: Setting property on non-local target 'https://subversion/project/trunk'
needs a base revision
[/quote]

So, I changed the above command to include the "-r BASE" option, and then I
get this error:
[quote]
svn: Cannot specify revision for setting versioned property 'bugtraq:url'
[/quote]

This occurs with each of the bugtraq properties.

I've also tried using "-r HEAD" but that results in the same error:
[quote]
svn: Cannot specify revision for setting versioned property 'bugtraq:url'
[/quote]

These errors seem to contradict one another, and I don't have a clue as to
what I'm doing wrong.

Don't know if it's relevant but I'm running svn:
[quote]
svn, version 1.5.0 (r31699)
   compiled Jun 23 2008, 12:59:48
[/quote]

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Eric

It looks like all your attempts have been to edit a versioned property via URL.

IIRC (and based upon the output of svn help ps), versioned properties
have to be set/edited in a working copy, then committed.
