Phew, I finally did it. Migrating part of an svn-repository to a new repository while changing the destination paths isn’t as trivial as the svn manual implies. The workflow according to the book should look like this:
- Dump the repository while filtering with svndumpfilter
- Edit the dumpfile to change paths
- Load the dumpfile into the new repository
While this is basically what I did, it wasn’t as straight forward as it sounds…
