SVN repo with external trunk

I h开发者_Go百科ave read-only access to the trunk of a SVN repository and I want to create another SVN repository in which the trunk is taken from the previous repository.

I tried using the "externals" tag, but when I clone the trunk to create a new branch I get an error saying that I cannot perform a copy between different repositories.

Is there another way to do it? The first repo is https://svn.bigr.nl/elastix/trunkpublic both user and password are "elastixguest".

How about using svnsnyc? One advantage is you don't need to have admin access to the old repository. You just need to execute two commands:

init: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.5/svn.ref.svnsync.c.init.html

sync: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.5/svn.ref.svnsync.c.sync.html
