• How to create a new directory under an existing repository

Mar 2015

      To resolve the issue with the svn repository

       1. Create the directory structure from the administration interface
        (https://svn.eecs.yorku.ca/admin.php)
       2. Add the users that you want to access the repository (allow Access Allow Modify)

       3. The directory must be created by the owner of the repository
          In this case (You). If however the user is at the top level of your repository, with (Allow Modify access)  he/she can add the directory as well
        $  svn mkdir https://svn.eecs.yorku.ca/repos/VisionLabPapers\  /ELICCV15


       4. Now the directory is created and users can have access to it

     Working Example
        From administrative interface , I added myself to
             VisionLabPapers top level with Access (Allow and Modify)
        Created a directory est1
             adding seela with both allow and modify access
        Ran the following command
         gemini 365 % svn mkdir https://svn.eecs.yorku.ca/repos
                    /VisionLabPapers/est1
       Authentication realm: <https://svn.eecs.yorku.ca:443> Subversion     Repository
       Password for 'seela'

         $ svn list https://svn.eecs.yorku.ca/repos/VisionLabPapers/est1
           no data
         % svn co https://svn.eecs.yorku.ca/repos/VisionLabPapers/est1
           Will create the directory back to by home directory
           Checked out revision 539

           Created file hello.txt

            % svn status
                       ?         hello.txt
            % svn add hello.txt
              Adding         hello.txt
                Transmitting file data ..
                  Committed revision 540.
