Hi all,
<rant>
Sometimes I find the lack of proper documentation quite !#$?@!!! Mainly
when it comes to command line switches. For example
- - -
[c:\]svn help mv
move (mv, rename, ren): Move and/or rename something in working copy or
repository.
usage: move SRC DST
Note: this subcommand is equivalent to a 'copy' and 'delete'.
SRC and DST can both be working copy (WC) paths or URLs:
WC -> WC: move and schedule for addition (with history)
URL -> URL: complete server-side rename.
Valid options:
-r [--revision] arg : ARG (some commands also take ARG1:ARG2 range)
A revision argument can be one of:
NUMBER revision number
"{" DATE "}" revision at start of the date
"HEAD" latest in repository
"BASE" base rev of item's working
copy
"COMMITTED" last commit at or before BASE
"PREV" revision just before
COMMITTED
-q [--quiet] : print as little as possible
--force : force operation to run
-m [--message] arg : specify commit message ARG
-F [--file] arg : read data from file ARG
--force-log : force validity of log message source
--editor-cmd arg : use ARG as external editor
--encoding arg : treat value as being in charset encoding ARG
--username arg : specify a username ARG
--password arg : specify a password ARG
--no-auth-cache : do not cache authentication tokens
--non-interactive : do no interactive prompting
--config-dir arg : read user configuration files from directory
ARG
[c:\]
- - -
Now, I imagine, that with -F option it is possible to move many files in a
single "transaction" (and I want to move files, not folders), but nowhere
it is possible to discover if (1) that is true and (2) what is the syntax
of the file. And I have searched the SVN book as well.
</rant>
Can someone please help?
What I want to achieve in the end is this: Through the copy command in the
good old command interface I have created the folder named
"/repo1/proj1/trunk/version-2.0" - which is stupid. So now I want to move
all the files and subfolders one folder UP to /repo1/proj1/trunk/ without
creating a bunch of new revisions. Is that possible?
Cheers,
