I have an exisiting repository at /var/lib/svn/projectA with (tags, branches, trunk structure) whose HEAD is at Revision 25
I just created a new/fresh repository at /var/lib/svn/projectB with (tags, branches, trunk structure) whose HEAD is at Revision 1 (because of importing the tags, branches and trunk structure). Now I would like to import the projectA repository into projectB with increasing HEAD of projectB up to revision 25. svn import commands is only for unversioned files. svn dump and svn load will increase the revision number. How can I do this? Should I just checkout a WC of projectA and then delete the .svn folder from it and then import it into projectB increasing revision of projectB to 2 which is fine? Is there a better way? Thanks.
