recovery of repository

by Einar Næss Jensen-2 :: Rate this Message:

I have a repository "/project"
i have accidentally deleted all the repository files in subdirectories,
but all svn files is still there.
I still have /project/db/revs
which contains (it seems to me) all transactions ever made (from
revision 1 to 122).

Is there a way to recover the repository from the logfiles?


Best regards

Perhaps it would be clearer if you showed us exactly which files and  
directories still exist now, and which files and directories you  
deleted. I'm not sure what you mean by "repository files in  
subdirectories" and "svn files".

I see now that my question makes little (or no) sense at all. I posted
on behalf of someone else who had set up a svn repository and was not
entirely aware that svn may be configured to store repositories in db.

Sorry for stupid questions!

On the bright side: I have now learned a bit subversion AND not always
to trust my users when they tell me all hell is loose..
