It is documented in the book, that's where I learned how to use it. http://svnbook.red-bean.com/html-chunk/ch06s04.html#svn-ch-6-sect-4.1 svn merge http://svn.example.com/repos/vendor/libcomplex/1.0 \ http://svn.example.com/repos/vendor/libcomplex/current \ libcomplex > > Where http://pkg/upstream/current always contains the latest version of > > the upstream source and http://pkg/upstream/a.b is a tag of it (svn cp) > > at some time in the past. > > > > I maintain http://pkg/upstream/current with svn_load_dirs. > > Another example of bad documented crap, without useful help messages... > > svn_load_dirs file:///home/user/rep-svn/svn-testing/lilo-x lilo-22.2 lilo-22.5.7.2 > /usr/bin/svn_load_dirs: import_dir `lilo-22.2' is a directory. The second command line option must be a path relative to the first in the repository, not your working copy or a new directory of upstream sources. The third command line option is the first of the new upstream source directories. Again, documented fairly clearly in the book: svn_load_dirs.pl takes three mandatory arguments. The first argument is the URL to the base Subversion directory to work in. This argument is followed by the URL--relative the first argument--into which the current vendor drop will be imported. Finally, the third argument is the local directory to import. -- Jamin W.
