Umm, how exactly do I do this? Bearing in mind that I mirror a number of
different remote repos. As luck would have it, the lost revisions belong
to a single repo.
svk depotmap --list says that depot // has a path of /home/david/.svk/local
If I read you right, I want to create a ~/.svk/local2 ?
Or do you mean I should take my current //local/project and sync it to
//local/project2? I thought sync works with //mirror only. Sorry to be
so dense. I've never needed to look below the hood before, and I'm a bit
lost.
Thanks,
David
