Well, that would try to move the new trunk into trunk too, wouldn't it? I think you have to selectively "svn mv" each individual item that is not trunk into trunk. And then, as I said before, you'll have to take care of any properties you might have set on "." (svn:ignore, perhaps?), by which I mean you'd have to delete those properties on "." and set them again on "trunk". > svn commit -m 'moved to trunk' > > And then everyone does "svn update"
