svn copy command

branch, branching-and-merging, svn

Solution

Ahh finally figured out the mistake... the command should have been :-

`svn copy svn+ssh://user@svn.example.com/software/branches/branch_name svn+ssh://user@svn.example.com/software/branches/new_branch_name -m "Message"`

I missed out the user part, which wasn't given in the guide.

it works absolutely fine now :D

Problem

I understand that this a very noob problem, but when I try to create a new branch from already present branch (not trunk) with the command : ``` svn copy svn+ssh://svn.example.com/software/branches/branch_name svn+ssh://svn.example.com/software/branches/new_branch_name -m "Message" ``` I get the following error : svn: No repository found in 'svn+ssh://svn.example.com/software/branches' I have checked again and again, the directory is correct. I don't understand why this is happening.
