Hello, I am trying to migrate a part of SVN repository using svnadmin dump. The provided svndumpfilter tool doesn't manage copy/move/rename dependencies from directories not included in the export. Is there a tool which can manage these dependencies? Thanks. ...
I need to get a backup dump of a large (~8gb) svn repository. My current method involves using svnadmin dump to a file and then using 7-Zip to compress and split the file. > svnadmin dump c:\path\to\myrepo > c:\svndump.svn > 7z svndump.svn svndump.7z // or whatever the correct syntax is I was wondering if there would be a way to ...
Recently, I made a decision to upgrade my svn repository from v1.5 to v1.6. After I run the upgrading command then I saw the message left in CMD windows. D:\svn>svnadmin upgrade repo Repository lock acquired. Please wait; upgrading the repository may take some time... Upgrade completed. D:\svn>_ Ya!! It seems great... but.... How d...

The error is svnadmin: Dump stream contains a malformed header (with no ':') at The dump was created on a subversion 1.5 server and I am loading to a new subversion 1.6 server. I was able to load several other repositories successfully to th...

I've been attempting to run svnadmin pack on repos that were originally created with SVN 1.6. However, I see no output to suggest the command is doing anything. Is it the case that shard packing occurs automatically for native 1.6 repos (as opposed to on-demand for upgraded repos)? The output I expect to see is: $ svnadmin pack /var/svn...
How can I copy a folder from one existing Subversion repository to another without preserving history, and in such a way that preserves relevant svn properties (e.g. preserve svn:ignore, svn:eol-style but ignore svn:mergeinfo). To use svn export followed by svn import would not preserve svn properties, so this is not good. We are curre...

Hi I'm wondering if there is a tool (can be commercial) to mass verify svn repositories. I know about using svnadmin but there are about 100 repositories and it's tedious to check whether if there's actually a corruption. I'm looking for something that can run in the background periodically and alert if there is a corruption. ...
Given: Repository_1 - source Repository_2 - destination I created a dump file of Repository_1/Folder1 using combination of svnadmin and svndumpfilter When loading from the dump file from Repository_1/Folder1 into Repository_2/Trunk everything is fine BUT When loading from Repository_1/Folder1/Sub-folder(created another d...
Hi, Running the following vbscript to call svnadmin dump fails (i.e. no dump is being created) Set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell") Set objShellExec = objShell.Exec("svnadmin dump C:\svn_repos > C:\fullbackup") I discovered from another post, http://stackoverflow.com/questions/445121/svn-dump-fails-with-wscript-shell/2400011...
Currently im setting up TortoiseSVN and reading through docs etc. The manual often mentions svnadmin. I figured out, that I have to download it seperatly. But the link seems to be old. After some browsing I got here. But I can't find a version 1.6.7, like my TortoiseSVN installation. Also I'm a little bit lost, because of the many files....
What I need is that the latest (mistake) revision being reverted and that the repository does not store it in anyway. That is, I'm trying to erase the latest revision out of existence, NOT trying to fix things by coming back to the latest-1 revision. In other words, I want to avoid the repository growing in size. Suppose head revision i...
I have to remove a branch from svn history for good. Normally I would use svnadmin dump /path/to/repo |svndumpfilter --drop-empty-revs --renumber-revs exclude /branches/bad_branch However this branch was not just created, but also moved and then removed and dump script fails to process downstream information with messages like: Inval...

I have only 1.5 executables, which produce a db/format containing 3 layout sharded 1000 I've tried to use the 1.5 svnadmin to verify the 1.4 repo, but it fails with 'vnadmin: Unknown FS type 'fsfs ...
I read some question/answers here about how to do it using svnadmin/dump etc. Actually I did not understand properly what I'm supposed to do. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/939963/how-to-migrate-svn-to-another-repository I think I have to do some sort of dump from the Google code repository using svnadmin, but where do I ge...
I have two CVS projects, which I maintain in Eclipse. I check out first project, and for second project I use "checkout in existing project" option, so I'm able to maintain two CVS projects into one Eclipse project. Doing this I'm able to Tag both projects with the same tag,etc. And know, time has come to start using SVN. I was able to ...
Every windows svn client I've tried crashes at the end of reverting three bad branch merges. I'd like to get them away from the head of our trunk, ideally erae them forever as the merge should have been a re-integration- not a range of revisons. I can't work out why the clients are crashing at the end of the and, of course everyone is ...
