RE: Change of server name

Hi Antony

I think this should work well. Make sure you create a backup of your local checked-out folder before editing the files in .svn.

Another option would be to checkout the stuff from the server with the new hostname to an empty folder, then delete all the .svn folders in yourlocal checkout and move the files over to the newly checked out folder. This work for sure.

Hope it helps,
Remo

Subject: Change of server name

Hi all,

I have an SVN repo that I've been working with for some time. I'm the only user. Since I created the repo, the server has changed name. Is there an easy way to perform a commit from my working copy? I can see that the server name is mentioned in all the .svn/entries files. Can I find / sed my way through those files and expect the commit to work?

Otherwise, what are my options? Perform an import to a brand-new repository and lose my changelogs?

Antony
