Re: adding something to svn

Hi,

It seems that you need to copy using svn copy WC URL syntax, right ?

Say you are currently in working copy [wc].

c:\projects\wc>

Please go one level up, and type in the copy sub-command

c:\projects\wc> cd ..
c:\projects\> svn copy wc file:///r:/projects/repos/fxbt/tags/fxbt_1.1.0

Eric,

  Buddy, I have read most of the relevant parts of the manual. :)
  Was stressed out, so perhaps could not frame the question!! appologies fr that

  the current question is: m running svn copy file:///trunk <url_fr_new_branch>
  whn i do so, i am gettting some error 'the src and the dest do not appear from the same repository" even if as the WC is from the svn itself.
  i have tried using the svn copy URL URL flavour of the command, but the svn WC URL is not working.

      Hi,

      I'am not sure how your folders are construct.
      But here may be help.

      If you need to add files to repository.
      You have two chooses.

      1.) import
      c:\> cd wc
      c:\wc> dir

       Directory of R:\temp\wc\phpbb

      07/23/2008 05:07a <DIR> .
      07/23/2008 05:07a <DIR> ..
      07/23/2008 05:04a <DIR> svn

      c:\wc> svnadmin create [path-to-repos]
      c:\wc> svn import -m "initial imports" svn svn://localhost/repos/svn

      ---

      2.) add files

      c:\wc> svnadmin create [path-to-repos]
      c:\wc> svn mkdir svn://localhost/repos/svn
      c:\wc> svn co svn://localhost/repos/svn svn
      c:\wc> dir

       Directory of c:\wc>

      07/23/2008 05:07a <DIR> .
      07/23/2008 05:07a <DIR> ..
      07/23/2008 05:04a <DIR> svn

      c:\wc> cd svn
      c:\wc\svn> echo some-text > file1.txt
      c:\wc\svn> svn add file1.txt

      c:\wc\svn> svn status
      A file1.txt

      c:\wc\svn> svn commit -m "added a new files"

      Wish this help,

      Eric,

        Subject: adding something to svn

        Hi all,

        I make a dir using svn mkdir.
        I want to add the contents of the working copy to this newly created directory.

        as far as i saw the svn manual, i saw "svn add files" i did not find anything like this "svn add <source> <URL_at_svn_repo>"

        is right now, my working copy is pointing to vx_v_z_abc and i want to to commit the contents of the working dir to the dir that i switched to using the svn switch command. will svn commit serve the purpose? so in short
        <local copy of vx_v_z_abc> to be commited to vx_v_z_abc in svn, will this happen if i just say svn commit -m "messge" will the wroking copy land in directory vx_v_z_abc???

        "Shut yourself from the world and create the reality you want"

    You don't want to run 'svnadmin create' twice.

    Also, note to newbies: svn creates a directy called '.svn' in working copies (which if often hidden, but not always). This is different from, and should not be confused with the user created 'svn' (no leading dot) in the above example.

    Scripted examples would probably be more useful using file:// (so anyone could run them).

    I read the original post, but could not figure out what the real question was. At first glance, it seems the OP does not understand the difference between a WC and a REPO. Rather than think too hard about it, I just ignored the question.

    To the OP (Original Poster): First advice: read the manual (http://svnbook.org). Second advice: when asking for help, show exact commands, what reponse you recieved, and what you expected. (See: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html)
