Make sure your working copy has no changes and is up-to-date (so
that, if the next step doesn't work, you can "svn revert -R" the
whole thing). Then try the exact same command without the --dry-run
parameter. Does it work? IMHO --dry-run is kinda busted in cases like
this which is why I never use it.
