We have two repositories, one for current code and one for project management.
Now we need to branch code to the project management repository.
SVN gives me an error, and I found in the documentation that SVN cannot do this work (different repository),
So I export the code and check in to the project repository.
The questions:
- how to branch code to another repository?
- for my case, how can I move the changes back from the project repository to the current repository? (I haven’t test it yet, but I think a diff or patch may work)
PS: I know there is a trunk/branch way, but we use two repositories.
If I got it right you want to add contents already under version control from a repository to another ? If that’s it you should probably have a look on svnsync which helps you merging different repositories.
Otherwise it may be simpler to keep the two repositories and add external definitions (links) to make them coexist. This way you won’t have to bother to much about breaking anything.
