Hello...

I would like to export several files in one command line.

I have tried something like :

svn export "http://pipo/molo/toto.java http://pipo/molo/moto.java http://pipo/molo/molo.java"

but I am said that there is a parsing error...

Does someone have any idea????


Hi Frederik

The format for "svn export" is (http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn.ref.svn.c.export.html or "svn help export") "svn export [-r REV] URL[@PEGREV] [PATH]" or "svn export [-r REV] PATH1[@PEGREV] [PATH2]". Since you're using two paths you're usign the second form. This represents "export the directory *tree* at path1 to path2", so that's why SVN isn't parsing your command. Also note that export works on directory *trees*, not files.

Hope this helps
John


Best regards


Frederic

Right, "svn export" is for exporting entire directories. If you want
to see the contents of a file, use "svn cat". If you want multiple
files, issue "svn cat" multiple times. Like this:

svn cat http://pipo/molo/toto.java > toto.java
svn cat http://pipo/molo/moto.java > moto.java
svn cat http://pipo/molo/molo.java > molo.java

Since "svn export" works for single files (I use it all the time), is there some performance or other reason to use "svn cat" instead?

svn export was intended for directories and svn cat was intended for
files. svn export works for files now too, but older versions of
Subversion did not allow svn export to be used with single files:

http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=1708

Therefore if you are concerned with portability to prior versions of
svn, you should use svn cat for files. If this is just for your own
personal use, or if you already require your users to have a
sufficiently recent version of svn, then svn export for files should
be fine.

OK, great. Thanks for the response.

But I have tried to export one single file... and it works....

Perhaps it is a new svn' s feature....

Thank you for your replies

I can confirm that - just tried exporting a single file and it worked just fine. That'll teach me to test before posting ;-)

Perhaps it is a new svn' s feature....

Quite possibly - I tried against a SVN 1.5 Beta repository.

Thank you for your replies

No worries, apologies for the inaccuracy.

Cheers
John
