RE: Disaster Recovery - Restoring a repository with lost revisions...

Sure. The method that I outlined was one that I remember seeing posted (in a far more condensed form) to the list from an earlier message by one of the developers. The method that I used in the past was even simpler; I deleted all the .svn directories in my working copy, and then imported that into my repository. The reason that I listed what I did is because it is what I understand the developer was saying you should do, and I defer to him in this case.

Anyone that wants to correct what I remember is more than welcome to jump in and make corrections!

Thanks,
Cem Karan

I don't use subversion that long, so this is maybe a stupid question, but:
after you export (or maybe check-out) the head, wouldn't simply copying
your latest files (WC) over, and then commiting, work?
