RE: How to correct Bogus Date on repository

SOLVED.

Many thanks Ryan, but I had to take this steps to finally get the svnadmin propedit working:

1) Enable a pre-revprop-change hook script to enable properties modifications on the repository server.

1a) Edit the file pre-revprop-change.tmpl in the hook directory of the repository, make it return 0 and add a message for testing in the form: echo "Message yours" >&2

1b) Save this file as pre-revprop-change (without .tmpl or .sh)

1c) Allow access to this file: chmod 755 pre-revprop-change

1d) Test: ./pre-revprop-change
The message you wrote should appear.

2) Set the Svn Editor. Run set SVN_EDITOR="notepad". This will set the notepad as the editor for modifying the date.

3) Modify the date property.

3a) svnadmin propget --revprop -r 99 svn:date http://myserver/repos/myrepo

This will prompt the notepad with the date of the revision 99 from the repository, not a working copy (this is why I set http://...), which in my case is correct, I copy this date.

3b) svnadmin propedit --revprop -r 101 svn:date http://myserver/repos/myrepo

This will prompt the notepad with the date of the revision 101 (which in my case is not correct) and I paste the copied date and modified the time.

3c) Close the notepad saving the changes. This explicitly modifies the date in the repository, not in the working copy.

3d) A message appears confirming the modification.

4) Check. I opened the Show Log and there is no connection error now!.

I read about what Lorenz send but changing this date resolved my problem, which I expect not appears again.

Slds.

svn propedit --revprop -r 101 svn:date

svn propedit --revprop -r 102 svn:date

These will bring up your editor (configured in the EDITOR environment
variable) and you can type in the correct date/time. For the correct
format of this property, look at its format in one of your other
revisions:

svn propget --revprop -r 103 svn:date
