Hello I'm trying to figure out how to use the import command in a windows environment. I'm reading the book but the documentation is unclear as is the help. Perhaps someone can clarify it for me.
For example the help says: Import [PATH] URL I need to import from one path to another. A path can also be referred to as an URL. However when both terms are used in an example then that implies a difference. What's the difference? Or is there none? I see no explanation anywhere. Too bad neither the help nor the book explain what the command expects. I wish to add some files to their own folder called iERP_v2 under the Repositories (shared) folder but can't find any information on that at all. How do I create a folder? From the server? Is there a command? Will import do it? The svn server lives on host Vm006 which I also mapped to drive s. A repository exists (called Repositories) with folders in it that I created with VisualSVN. Unfortunately VisualSVN is inadequate for our needs so I need to learn the archaic commands. The code I wish to import lives on a mapped network drive; g. I tried issuing the command from the directory where the files reside: \\Vm006\Repositories Fails Invalid URL '//vm006/Repositories' //Vm006/Repositories Fails Invalid URL '//vm006/Repositories' \\Vm006\$e\Repositories Fails Error resolving case of '\\Vm006\$e\Repositories' //Vm006/$e/Repositories Fails Error resolving case of '\\Vm006\$e\Repositories' s:\Repositories Fails Invalid URL 'S:/Repositories' s:/Repositories Fails Invalid URL 'S:/Repositories' s:\Repositories\iERP_v2 Fails Invalid URL 'S:/Repositories/iERP_v2' s:/Repositories/iERP_v2 Fails Invalid URL 'S:/Repositories/iERP_v2' Then I tried changing directories to the SVN server but received the same results. svn import "g:\code\intuitive projects\projects" Vm006\Repositories Fails svn: E205000: Invalid URL 'Vm006/Repositories' etc. It seems to ignore what kind of slash is used but all the logical options failed so I tried the illogical ones also. They all failed. John Maher
