I have the following directory structure in trunk: trunk – dir1 – dir2 -subdir1

I have the following directory structure in trunk:

trunk
      - dir1
      - dir2
          -subdir1
          -subdir2

I want to copy dir2/subdir2 to my https://mynewbranchurl

If I do svn cp ./dir2/subdir2 https://mynewbranchurl I see subdir2 directly under mynewbranch. What should I do to get dir2/subdir2/contents in mynewbranch?

I do not want to manually create dir2 in mynewbranch.

    You should use the –parents option for the copy command:

    svn cp --parents ./dir2/subdir2 http://repourl/branches/my_new_branch/dir2/subdir2
    

    In this way Subversion creates all intermediate directories (I am not sure if you need subdir2, please test it)
