In my working space, I have a directory "working" that contains a set of directories all taken from the same SVN repo (dir1, dir2, dir3). I would like to tag all of them by doing:
cd working
svn copy dir1 dir2 dir3 http://svn.example.com/repos/project/tags/MY_TAG
The "working" directory is not itself versioned in SVN. I want to get dir1, dir2, dir3 at whatever SVN version they are currently at (which may not be HEAD from the trunk). When I try this, I get the error:
svn: '.' is not a working copy
"svn help copy" and the SVN book both suggest that what I'm doing should be possible, but I guess the fact that "working" is not itself versioned precludes this.
TIA for suggestions on how to do this.
