I believe the commands I used were something like this:
svnadmin init /repo
svn checkout /repo
mkdir trunk
echo foo > trunk/foo
svn add trunk
svn commit
svn update
echo bar > trunk/bar
svn add trunk/bar
svn commit
echo baz > trunk/baz
svn add trunk/baz
svn commit
svn update -r1
svn copy . /repo/branch
At this point the repository head is at rev 4 but you have a branch
forked off from rev 1. An svn ls /repo/branch works, but then fails (
saying the path can not be found ) if you add a -r3 or -r2, then works
again with -r1.
If /repo/branch can be found in HEAD, and has history that traces back
to rev 1 ( run an svn log on it and it shows the history all the way
back to r1 ), then you should be able to find it in all revs between 1
and HEAD.
