Migrate SVN directory from standard to SSH

Question

Hi,

I have an SVN repo that I want to change to work over SSH, but don't want to checkout again. I have added the appropriate tunnels, but when I go to checkout, it still goes over HTTP.

Answer 1

Use svn switch --relocate old-url new-url . to convert the default access URL.

Answer 2

From within the working directory of your checked out repository:

svn switch svn+ssh://some.server/path/to/repo .

See the documentation.
