When I do:
svn ls -r 2200 demo/hello/
I can see a bunch of files:
greetings.xml something.xml world.xml zoo.xml
A hundred revisions later, the world.xml
file doesn't exist any longer.
I thought that in order to see the contents of a file from SVN, I simply use svn cat
and specify the revision. However, neither:
svn cat -r 2200 demo/hello/world.xml
nor:
svn cat demo/hello/world.xml@2200
work in my case; both return:
svn: E155010: The node '/home/user/src/demo/hello/world.xml' was not found.
So how do I read from SVN the contents of a file which existed long ago but doesn't exist any longer?
