The utility svnrdump allows you to dump and load Subversion repositories, including the whole revision history.
A typical use case for svnrdump looks like this:
|
1 2 |
svnrdump dump <OLD-REPOSITORY-URL> > my-repository.dump svnrdump load <NEW-REPOSITORY-URL> < my-reposiotory.dump |
To find out which revisions a particular dump file contains, grep comes in handy: The contained revision numbers are stored in plain text and in increasing order in the dump file.
|
1 |
grep -a "Revision-number:" my-repository.dump |
returns all stored revisions. To find out the first or last contained revision, simply use head and tail:
|
1 2 |
grep -a "Revision-number:" my-repository.dump | head -n 1 grep -a "Revision-number:" my-repository.dump | tail -n 1 |
