Part of the tree of our working copy for our project is a ./lib directory.
Most libraries are built, but some are pre-built binaries. What I would
like to do would be to export (I don't need version control on the lib
directory) one library from the repository to an existing lib directory
with files already in it. I can't seem to do it.
> svn list $SVNREPOS/lib/libct.lib
libct.lib
> svn export $SVNREPOS/lib/libct.lib tmplibdir
svn: REPORT request failed on '/repository/!svn/vcc/default'
svn:
Cannot replace a directory from within
According to the manual, "If repo_url names a single file, just that one
file is checked out." So I figured I would try checkout, living with the
fact that we would get a .svn directory too.
> svn co $SVNREPOS/lib/libct.lib libdir
svn: REPORT request failed on '/repository/!svn/vcc/default'
svn:
Cannot replace a directory from within
STFW indicates that the message means something got moved within the
repository, but not only don't I think that's the case, but if it was I
doubt "svn list" would work properly.
This is using the svn client on WinXP under cygwin's pdksh shell,
accessing the repository on a Linux box over HTTP. If that matters.
Thanks in advance.
