Thanks Giulio for your help.
Actually I want to get the current directory path from "svn info " while
using "svn commit". so I can write a script for auto switch (svn switch
--relocate from_URL To_URL) from the mirror side to master side.
Do you know how to get this information to do this?
thanks very much in advance.
