Hello,
I'm playing around with LLVM sources and would like to make local tweaks while keeping track with ongoing development in the trunk. I tried issuing the command: svn copy http://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk svn+ssh://usern...@myserver.net/usr/data/llvm-local to which SVN responds: svn: E200007: Source and destination URLs appear not to point to the same repository. My question is this: Is there a compelling technical reason why branching must occur within the same repository? I'm tempted to try my hand in adding cross-repository branching to SVN, but would like to make sure first that this is not impossible. For example, I have read-only access to the LLVM repository (like most mere mortals), so if branching requires that some metadata be written there, then this would be a no-go. Many thanks, --Zem
