RE: spam: Re: Moving files between folders in repo-browser; revision history lost?

Stefan-

We decided to just merge the dev branch back to the original trunk, and it
appears to have worked.

However, I would like to make sure that I understand the correct process for
what we botched earlier. So...

- Given this situation: we want to move from a folder layout where all the
different projects are under one trunk folder together, one branches folder
together, etc. to a layout where each project has its own set of
trunk/branches/tags folders:

Is the correct process to:

- open the Repo-browser; create a new "master" folder for each project
- move, by dragging, each project's sub-folder from the original trunk
folder to its new "master" folder
- re-name the trunk folder to "trunk"

And then do this for the branches and tags folders:

- in the Repo-browser, create tags and branches folders under the new
"master" folder
- move the tags folders into the just created "tags" folder under the master
- do the same for the branches folder

Will this give us what we want-- a new folder structure with an unbroken
revision history? Or am I totally misunderstanding again? :-)

Thanks for your time.

-Andrew
