RE: Svndumpfilter

Hi,

It worked for small repository but getting the below error for a big
repository.

svndumpfilter: E200003: Invalid copy source path '/Some/Path'.

The dump file is 15G

Thanks & Regards,
Anup T S

I think you have a usage error.

  $ svndumpfilter help include
  include: Filter out nodes without given prefixes from dumpstream.
  usage: svndumpfilter include PATH_PREFIX...
                               ^^^^^^^^^^^

What PATH_PREFIX is meant to say is that svndumpfilter expects an
in-repository path. But you gave it a URL.

Try something like:

    cat repo.dump | svndumpfilter include --drop-empty-revs
      --renumber-revs /B > sv.dump

> * svnadmin load /var/svn/data/new_repo < sv.dump
