I try to use the SharpSvn library in my VB.Net project to access my SVN repository.
I want to create a branch programmatically. This is my approach:
Dim trunkUrl As String = "file://sourcecontrol.server/repo/trunk/test-folder"
Dim branchUrl As String = "file://sourcecontrol.server/repo/branches/mybranches/test-folder"
Using client As SvnClient = New SvnClient()
Dim copyArgs = New SvnCopyArgs
copyArgs.CreateParents = True
copyArgs.LogMessage = "New Branch"
Dim target As SvnUriTarget = New SvnUriTarget(New Uri(trunkUrl))
client.Copy(target, branchUrl)
End Using
I get the error: "System.ArgumentException: 'This argument is not a valid path. A Uri was specified Parametername: toPath'"
How do I need to pass in the trunk and branch URL?
Or is svnClient.Copy() not the right method for branching?
And I cannot find an accessible documentation with examples. The project page under https://sharpsvn.open.collab.net/servlets/ProjectProcess?pageID=3794 has a link to the documentation, but it seems it's not working anymore.
A simple fix. Change this line:
client.Copy(target, branchUrl)
to
client.RemoteCopy(target, new Uri(branchUrl), copyArgs)
