Re: Rearranging archive

I've tried that with every combination of file://... I can think of and
I keep getting errors. the disk layout is:
drive D (Windows XP)
d:\archive - normal directory
under archive there are multiple repositories, each representing a
separate project.
I've created a new repository
svnadmin create d:\MyArchive
I created a directory tree to mirror what I want:
d:\temp
d:\temp\proj1
d:\temp\proj1\trunk
d:\temp\proj1\branches
d:\temp\proj1\tags
d:\temp\proj2
d:\temp\proj2\trunk
d:\temp\proj2\branches
d:\temp\proj2\tags
...
 From d:\temp I ran
svn import . file:///MyArchive
svn list file:///MyArchive shows the project files

Now, how do I get d:\archive\proj1 into d:\MyArchive\proj1\trunk?
Here is what I am getting

D:\archive>svn mv file:///archive/proj1 file:///MyArchive/proj1/trunk
svn: Source and dest appear not to be in the same repository (src:
'file:///archive/crbuild'; dst: 'file:///MyArchive/crbuild/trunk')
