How to use the SVN command line with TortoiseSVN

Question

How do I use the command line for SVN when SVN is installed by Tortoise?

I'm trying to invoke some commands found in Changing a revision property in Subversion, but I'm not seeing the same directory structure under Program Files (x86)\VisualSVN Server (obviously).

Answer 1

That page mostly references setting up SVN hooks on the server, but you can call SVN functions through Tortoise like the following:

<Path to TortoiseSVN>\bin\TortoiseProc.exe /command:<SVNCommand> <Parameters>

For example:

C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin\TortoiseProc.exe /command:log /path:"c:\MyRepo\"

TortoiseProc.exe is a GUI program and the "output" will be windows with some information in them, not text to standard output. – Magdeburg

Answer 2

The directory structure is per repository. You have to look at your repository's folder, not the program folder.

ok, I tried to cd to repositories and also repositories\repoName and tried to run that mv .... command. I must be missing something here. – Montemayor

Did you look in your working copy or in the repository? (The latter is on the server, the former on the client.) – Kutzenco
