svn - Changing a file tree in tortoisesvn -
We have a subversion repository that was set without the use of standard \ trunk \ tags \ branch layout and now some After years we are looking to improve this. We use turtle SVN.
Our current system is that we have different subdirectories containing "Dev" folder for UI, Business Logic, etc.
Ideally, we want to be a god with folders, trunk, branches and tags, then our subdirectory within the trunk folder.
My plan was to create new trunks, branches and tag folders under dev folder and at the same level as our subdirectory, add and commit new folders, and then svnmove the sub-directories in the trunk folder.
I can do this on an up-to-date work copy; However, we all have many local changes, and I'm afraid that when we make updates, we will get hundreds of trees conflict indefinitely. Can anyone see a better way of doing this?
The only option I can see is to copy all the locally changed files from our current work copies to the new checkout of the repository and then remove the old working copy, but this Not ideal. We have a lot of local changes and there is no possibility of such a time when we have a fairly old work copy in all .
Many thanks in advance,
Dave
