Problem understanding branching schemes

Asked by Eric Anderson

I am having trouble creating a branch for a paticular SVN repository. I am thinking I just don't understand branching schemes but after trying to adjust those I am still unable to create a branch from this repository so I thought I would seek some help. The code I am trying to create a branch from is:

http://svn.viney.net.nz/things/rails/plugins/acts_as_modified/

When I execute:

bzr branch http://svn.viney.net.nz/things/rails/plugins/acts_as_modified/

I get the following error message:

bzr: ERROR: trunk/rails_plugins/acts_as_modified/README is not a valid Subversion branch path in the current branching scheme. See 'bzr help svn-branching schemes' for details.

This confusing me because there is no "trunk" in the path. Also rails and plugins have been combined together. Any suggestions?

I am currently using bzr-svn 0.4.7 as distributed through Ubuntu.

After playing with this for a bit I found out the secret sauce was to do

bzr svn-branching-scheme http://svn.viney.net.nz/things/ --set

Then when my editor popped up put in

rails/plugins/*
trunk/rails_plugins/*

After that everything worked great.
