tortoise svn (relocate to new repository)

Question

hello experts, we are facing problem in relocating our application from old repo to new one. initially we were using //10.X.X.50/svn/XXX. now we trying to shift to new repo at //10.X.X.152:8443/svn/XXX as the server hard disk is crashed (10.X.X.50). While we are trying to use relocate option in tortoise svn - its giving error:

The repository at 'https://10.X.X.152:8443/svn/XXX' has uuid '5005c752-e8bc-6a46-9f1b-84ec39085508', but the WC has '005a1777-a2fa-4437-9a0c-b35647624529'

we are using TortoiseSVN 1.5.9, Build 15518 - 32 Bit.

Currently, the new repository which is created on another server is having 3 folders created: Branches, Tags and Trunk.

Answer 1

EDIT:

You should either:

• Set the old UUID for your new repository, using svnadmin setuuid
  • svnadmin setuuid REPOS_PATH [NEW_UUID]
• Or get a fresh checkout from the new repository.

If you go for the first option, when the new repository UUID's match the old one, just go to your working copy in Windows Explorer, right click in a blank spot and choose,

TortoiseSVN -> Relocate..., and there you will be prompted for the new repository location.

Do u know if its posible move several repositories (one folder each one) to only a one repository mantaining the revisions and all the staff with the relocate command?
