Client svn 1.8.13
Server svn 1.8.13 on Centos 7 64 bit
-----
I have a repository with 400 000 revisions.
Proyect X in that repository has the usual trunk / branches / tags
structure.
Project X
+- trunk
+- tags
+-- setA
+-- setB
+-- setC
The number of tags under 'setB' is over 3000. All of them are copies
of the trunk at several points in the past.
I want to rename 'setB' to 'setF'.
Easy, I thought: svn mv ....setB .....setF.
Did you use server-side move or client-side move + commit? Please show
us the *exact* command you used, not some summary that you think is
sufficient, but really is not.
It was a server-side move launched from my Windows 10 PC client.
The original command, with some names changed, was:

svn mv http://myserver.mydomain.com/svn/myrepo/ProjectX/tags/setB/ http://
myserver.mydomain.com/svn/myrepo/ProjectX/tags/setF/ -m"Renombrando
etiquetas setB a setF."

This command bailed out after 30 minutes aprox.

The commands included in the script that is (still) running are like this
one:

svn mv
http://myserver.mydomain.com/svn/myrepo/ProjectX/tags/setB/MY_FIRST_TAG/
http://myserver.mydomain.com/svn/myrepo/ProjectX/tags/setF/MY_FIRTS_TAG/
-m"Moviendo etiquetas de setB a setF."

These commands take from 15 to 60 s and create 200 000 bytes files in the
fsfs repo.
