Destroy initial testing/learning repository

Kindly Help

 

We are developers of groundwater and environmental technologies for complex
sites. Our plan is to use SVN package for source codes and databases.

During learning processes we have created several repositories by mistake.
Please see attached jpg file.

 

We have not been able to clean these redundant links. We tried

Svn del

Svn rm

Svn browser to delete repository

 

 

Z:\>svn rm file:///d:/dummy/svndemo

svn: Unable to open an ra_local session to URL

svn: Unable to open repository 'file:///d:/dummy'

svn: Your commit message was left in a temporary file:

svn:    'svn-commit.tmp'

 

Z:\>svn rm -r file:///d:/dummy/svndemo

svn: Syntax error in revision argument 'file:///d:/dummy/svndemo'

 

Z:\>svn rm file:///d:/dummy/svndemo

svn: '\' is not a working copy

svn: Can't open file '\.svn\entries': The system cannot find the path
specified.

 

Kindly help

Hi Andy
Thanks - great explanation.
 Can we delete history, as we do on internet browser? If there is specific
file we can remove it manually. As you have informed us it is 
 just a history of links. However we would like to maintain clean small list
if possible.

All you're seeing is the history that TSVN maintains for convenience
(just like web browser history). If you've already deleted
d:\dummy\svndemo via the command prompt or Windows Explorer, the
repository is gone.

He was really asking 2 things:
1) Proper method of deleting a repository
2) Removing that repository from the TSVN history (see screenshots)

I think there was confusion because even though the repository was
deleted, it remained in TSVN's URL history, so one might reach a
conclusion that it wasn't really deleted.

Oh, he is talking about TSVN history? :headtwhap: I didn't expect that
on the svn list.

TortoiseSVN -> Settings -> Saved Data -> URL history (click the Clear button).

All you're seeing is the history that TSVN maintains for convenience
(just like web browser history). If you've already deleted
d:\dummy\svndemo via the command prompt or Windows Explorer, the
repository is gone.

RE: Destroy initial testing/learning repository

If you want to delete a "repository" and not a working copy, just use
the OS delete/remove command not the svn command.
