How I can move repo's base folder?

Asked by Santosh

Hi,

santosh@localhost:~/temp/BZR_REPO$ ls -a
. .. .bzr project1
santosh@localhost:~/temp/BZR_REPO$ cd project1/
santosh@localhost:~/temp/BZR_REPO/project1$ ls -a
. .. test1.txt
santosh@localhost:~/temp/BZR_REPO/project1$

If my repo is as shown above, can I make directory project1 as base directory?

Thanks,
Santosh

Can you please confirm your intent here? Thanks!

(If you haven't yet committed anything, you can probably move the .bzr folder directly)

(If you've committed, moving the .bzr folder may be a bad idea since you have to tell bzr you moved all the files in the repo)

Actually I have committed a lot, an entire project of around 10k files, that was just sample situation I shown above.

Moving will show as all files deleted and then all files newly added.

Please let me know if I can achieve this without moving?

Thanks.

How are you moving the files? Using "bzr mv foo bar" will tell bzr it was a
rename, and it will delta compress the content.
