RE: Repository Directory Tree

I *think* that proj1/2/3 are separate projects inside one repository, but
none of those distinctions were very clear to me (I DID read the manual,
cover to cover). I certainly understand the concept of the equivalence
between a directory and project (I think), but, to me, anyway, it's not
clear the distinction between a repository and further directory structure.

But now my memory returns: I only created ONE repository, so all those are
projects under that repository.

Thanks for the response!

Allen

        Subject: Fwd: Repository Directory Tree

        I send this email out about once a month or so in what is becoming
the vain hope I'll get a response...

        My subversion repository is in /var/svn. Somehow (and, yes, I'm new;
I'm evaluating it), I've wound up with the following directory structure in
my subversion repository:

        /var/svn/
        var/svn/proj1
        var/svn/proj2
        var/svn/proj3.

        In other words, to do a list of the repositories, I have to do:

        svn listfile:///var/svn/var/svn

        to get my projects listed.

        I've tried to do an svnadmin dump and load with --parent-dir, and
that
        didn't work. This was the command line sequence after I had made a
copy
        of the repository in /var/svn.sav:

        svnadmin dump /var/svn.sav> old_repos
        rm -r/var/svn/*
        svnadmin create /var/svn
        svnadmin load --parent-dir / /var/svn< old_repos

        But, even though I had parent-dir as / (to try to eliminate one of
the
        /var/svn's), I still got /var/svn/var/svn/projects.

        What is the way to do this?

        TIA,
        Allen

Is /var/svn one repository and proj1/2/3 directories inside it? or are
proj1/2/3 three separate repositories? How did you create you repository or
repositories?
