I think where you're saying "repos" above you mean "project" or "directory". It still seems that your repository is just /var/svn/repos. > now I take a dump of the repos which will be taken to the new server > svnadmin dump /var/svn/repos/ > svn.dump > > Now I try to filter and extract *only* the chi project > (file:///var/svn/repos/chi). > svndumpfilter include chi < dump > dump.filtered > > Doing this however, gives me the following error: > svndumpfilter: Invalid copy source path '/trunk/chi' You will need to "include" every path "chi" was ever known as, not just the path it's at in the HEAD revision.
