Re: Give us instructions to create a new repository with the branch code of a old repository

Hi,

I have already used *switch* command. But it doesn't worked for me.
*command i have used*
svn switch file:///home/user/svn/project/branches/branch1
file:///home/user/svn/project/trunk/
*Error i get*
svn: 'file:///home/user/svn/project/branches' is not a working copy
svn: Can't open file 'file:///home/user/svn/project/branches/.svn/entries':
No such file or directory

*Note:*

   - I have both svn repos and workspace in one system itself.
   - I have checked out my workspace from only the branch
   url(i.e.file:///home/user/svn/project/branches/branch1)

I have execute the above command from workspace. And all the trunk and
branch are committed to the svn. So, sure .svn entries are available in the
branch folder.

I am unable to understand why i am getting this error. What the wrong i am
doing?
