RE: copying multiple revisions from 1 repository to another

Karl,

Thank you for pointing out the typo.

The files are the same files which need to be copied, but were modified
in a separate repository. I don't want to maintain two repositories so I
need to find a way to merge all revisions into rep2 and use rep2 as my
only repository from that point forwards.

As you sure there is no way to do this ? Doesn't svnadmin dump/load help
in any way ?

Tim.

Copying from rep1 into rep2 would not create new revision numbers in
rep1 anyway, but rather in rep2.

However, there is no versioning-sensitive way to do a cross-repository
copy right now. You just have to add the files as new and indicate in
their log message (or something) that they were copied from another
repository.
