Hello,
Now thats fairly funny, it seems like your aix shell doesn't treat
quotes the same way other unix tools do?
Have you tried using single quotes instead of double quotes?
svn -m 'jira:RTPS-9898 EPC 2021 install' copy <src> <dst>
Best regards,
Thorsten

Hi, Not much luck! If I put the text in the front, it is not being
able to process/recognize a multi word string and throwing error like
below:
If I put the below message in the command line
svn -m "jira:RTPS-9898 EPC 2021 install" copy <src> <dst>
giving error:
Unknown subcommand: 'EPC'.
Maybe you are using a more recent SVN version, where some bugs related
to this issue might have been fixed.
Thanks!

Hello,
My next guess would be that the -m paramter simply must be in the
front.
In my scripts I use
$svn -m"tag erstellen" cp"$repository/branches/v$base_Branch/uls"
"$repository/tags/released/v$tag/uls"
and that works fine.
Best regards,

Hi, Thanks for your response.
But I'm trying to copy the contents from one directory to another
new directory within one repository itself like below:
svn copy <repo_root>/dir/subdir1 <repo_root>/dir/subdir2
The interesting part is that if I omit the -m option, svn
automatically opens up the editor and waits for the log message.
if I put the message there and close the editor window, it
completes the copy operation without any error. It complains if
the message text is supplied on the command line with -m option.
Thanks!

Hello,
My guess is that you are trying to copy from one repository
into a
different repository.
But the svn copy <src url> <dst url> -m 'info message' is
designed to
copy files in the same repo, as the help states:
URL -> URL: complete server-side copy; used to branch and tag
to copy files from one repo into another try downloading them
first and
then import them using "svn import".
If you are doing an server side copy, than your syntax
"should" work.
Best regards,
