FW: Not able to filter out the old revisions / rearrange the revisions in project

Hello All,

There is some confusion in my below mail so just to be more specific:

In our SVN environment we have multiple projects in a single repository lets say X, I have imported a project lets say Y in a new repository lets say Z by using svnsync utility and the project Y was mirrored successfully in the new repository Z.

 Now the project Y in repository Z is having all the committed revisions for all other projects that are present in repository X, those revisions are like empty revisions present project Y.

For e.g. Ideally project Y is having 1000 commits so it should have only 1000 revisions but it is having more than 20,000 revisions means 19,000 commits are of other projects in repository X

Again, I executed following commands:

1) On Windows : svnadmin dump /path to repo/|svndumpfilter --drop-empty-revs --renumber-revs --skip-missing-merge-sources include Y > Y_final

                                              svnadmin load /path/to/targetrepo/ < Y_final

        2) On UNIX: cat dump | svndumpfilter include Y --drop-empty-revs --renumber-revs > dump_final

But again none is solving the purpose.

Any pointers on the same will be highly appreciated.

Regards,
Pulkit

Subject: Not able to filter out the old revisions / rearrange the revisions in project

Hello All,

Greetings for the day!!!!!

In our SVN environment we have multiple projects in a single repository lets say X, I have imported a project lets say Y in a new repository by using svnsync utility and the project Z was mirrored successfully in a new repository lets say Y.

Now the project Y in repository Z is having all the revisions that are present in repository X, those revisions are like empty revisions present project Y.

To filter out the old revisions / rearrange the revisions in project Y (e.g. 1,2,3....n excluding the empty revisions) I have executed the following commands:

1) svnadmin dump /path/to/sourcerepo/ | svndumpfilter --drop-empty-revs --skip-missing-merge-sources include /folder/to/move/ > dumpfile

svnadmin load /path/to/targetrepo/ < dumpfile

2) svnadmin dump /path/to/sourcerepo/ | svndumpfilter --renumber-revs --skip-missing-merge-sources include /folder/to/move/ > dumpfile

svnadmin load /path/to/targetrepo/ < dumpfile

But none of them solved the purpose.

Kindly let me know whether this is a known issue with svndumpfilter or the approach that I am following is incorrect.

Regards,
Pulkit
