SVN : rename a repo

Filed under: projects — Tags: , , — admin @ 11:44 am

Hey all!

Just though I’d post this more as a reminder for me… I had a need to rename one of my repositories in svn, turns out there’s magic “rename repository” function.

What I ended up doing was..

1.create a new a repository  ::   svnadmin create [fullpath/]newRepoName

2.dump the existing repo to a dump file :: svnadmin dump [fullpath/]old_Repo > dumpFileName.dump

3.load the new repo from the dump file ::  svnadmin load [fullpath/]newRepoName < dumFilename.dump

Is there another way?

Hope that helps

Thanks

Zak
