I am trying to use svndumpfilter to move seperate projects in a
repository into their own respective repositories on a Windows
platform. The documentation says to pipe svndumpfilter through the cat
command, but this isn't very useful on the Windows platform.
First, I dumped the entire repository like this:
svnadmin dump repos > reposdumpfile
Next, I tried filtering project1 out of the dumpfile. Here are the
different ways I have tried:
type reposdumpfile | svndumpfilter include project1 > project1dumpfile
more reposdumpfile | svndumpfilter include project1 > project1dumpfile
print /D:CON reposdumpfile | svndumpfilter include project1 > project1dumpfile
I also have the cat program for DOS from unxutils.sourceforge.net
and have tried the following filters with it:
cat reposdumpfile | svndumpfilter include project1 > project1dumpfile
cat -A reposdumpfile | svndumpfilter include project1 > project1dumpfile
cat -B reposdumpfile | svndumpfilter include project1 > project1dumpfile
Whenever I get output after using the filter, only very small dumpfiles are
generated. After loading the dumpfile into a newly created repository,
the new repository has all the revisions, but no data.
Has anyone been successful in using the svndumpfilter on a Windows
platform? If so, how?
Should this task be possible through the Subversion software only, without
having to pipe it through another command?
Thanks in advance,
Floor
