Subject: Re: Promoting a mirror repository as a source repository
Greetings, Gingko!
I have a (now theoretical) question :
Suppose I have a repository that is a mirror repository of a remote
source
repository, regularly synced using svnsync.
Suppose now that the source repository become broken or deleted for any
reason (server breakdown, fire, etc)
So the only available copy of the repository is now the synced mirror
repository.
How could I promote my mirror repository in order to have it becoming the
new source repository on the mirror server or on another server ?
(I think that just using the mirror repository without change is not
enough
as it contains somewhere inside it information about the old source
repository, given at the beginning by "svnsync initialize", which would
certainly need to be removed)
svn help switch
http://svnbook.org/
Thank you very much for your answer, but I'm sorry, this is not an answer to
my question.
"svn switch" is about changing URLs in working copies, I know how to do this
(actually I made several of these changes today).
But what I want to know is what I have to do on the REPOSITORY side.
