Are you sure /private is actually a repository? Can you list files in it?

If so, perhaps repo to repo moves aren't possible. Yea, I just tried a copy from one repo to another and that gave me the same error. So, I'm pretty sure that is the issue. If you want to move a project from one repo to another and retain history you are going to need to dump/load it.
