Question

I have a tag with several changes on it whose base revision came from somewhere (branch? trunk? not sure.) I believe what happened was I checked out the trunk, made changes to it, then tagged from my working copy. I’ve tried to use the following command, but it doesn’t say anything about the base. What I want to do is find the base and do a comparison between the tag and the base revision to see what changes were made between the base and tag.

svn log -v --stop-on-copy (url)

results in:

r3678 | my.name | 2010-12-23 14:44:40 -0800 (Thu, 23 Dec 2010) | 3 lines
Changed paths:
   A /tags/dir
   A /tags/dir/subdir
   A /tags/dir/subdir/subsubdir

Answer 1

Figured it out. The container folder’s log only shows the history for that folder. I had to drill down to the actual source folder and look at its history to see where things were coming from.

As it turned out, I copied from the trunk to my user directory, did a bit of development there, and tagged from the user directory.
