RE: Locating directory in old revision

Hi John,

You are right, "previous states are preserved".

I think what you want is svn -r nnn http://10.0.0.200/svn/server/mod@145

You may want to read the section on Pegged revision
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.1/ch07s03.html

Thanks

Subject: Locating directory in old revision

Hi,

I want to export a directory from my repos that does not exist in the
latest revision.

I can see it if I use "svn list -r nnn"

However if I do "svn info -r nnn" I get an error like the below:

$ svn list -r 145 http://10.0.0.200/svn/server/mod
 svn: REPORT request failed on '/svn/!svn/bc/155/server/mod'

(I'm trying to extract r145, current is r155)

After revision 145, I moved the directory to another part of my tree:

svn mv http://10.0.0.200/svn/server/mod http://10.0.0.200/svn/abc -m
"make abc tree"

I thought previous states were preserved?

Any help/explanation apreciated....

Thanks.
