Re: Confused as to why svn switch not working for me

I think I got it:

I missed it in the book. It lists the following syntax: svn switch URL
[PATH]

It should probably be: svn switch URL [URL] [PATH]

When using the --relocate switch, two URLs are needed, as well as the
PATH.

Or maybe the Switches section should be changed to look like: --relocate
URL

I was fooloed by the syntax into thinking where was only one URL required,
as the --relocate didn't have anything listed. I finally found it though.

Subject
Confused as to why svn switch not working for me
Classification

The SVN repository is being moved to a whole new partition that is auto
mounted.

The current root path is:

        file:///export/c0t0d0s7/subversion_db

The new path is:

        file:///home/share/svn

All directories under the old path have been Unix copied (using tar in
this case) from the current location to the new location.

The .svn/entries file in the base of the version that I have checked out
has the following entry:

        url="
file:///export/c0t0d0s7/subversion_db/Pinnacle_251_fsfs/branches/Pinnacle_DEV021
"

But, the following happens:

soldev56.ZCURR <172> svn switch
file:///home/share/svn/Pinnacle_251_fsfs/branches/Pinnacle_DEV021 .
svn: 'file:///home/share/svn/Pinnacle_251_fsfs/branches/Pinnacle_DEV021'
is not the same repository as
'file:///export/c0t0d0s7/subversion_db/Pinnacle_251_fsfs'

soldev56.ZCURR <173> svn switch file:///home/share/svn/Pinnacle_251_fsfs .
 
svn: 'file:///home/share/svn/Pinnacle_251_fsfs'
is not the same repository as
'file:///export/c0t0d0s7/subversion_db/Pinnacle_251_fsfs'

Any hints will be appreciated.

Thanks.
