I have an svn working copy on my local system. I want to get the remote repository URL. Is there some command for doing this?

  • When you say 'workspace' do you mean you're using SVN integrated into some IDE e.g. Eclipse? Either way Grhm's command-line solution will work, provided you have the command-line tools installed too though. – Rup Feb 03 '12 at 16:25

Try:

svn info .

This should give some information about the current working copy, including the remote URL.

From the manual, an example output is:

$ svn info foo.c  
Path: foo.c  
Name: foo.c  
URL: http://svn.red-bean.com/repos/test/foo.c  
Repository Root: http://svn.red-bean.com/repos/test  
Repository UUID: 5e7d134a-54fb-0310-bd04-b611643e5c25

As of Subversion 1.9 you can now request a specific item from svn info.

svn info --show-item=url

This will output only the remote url. To get rid of the newline at the end, add this extra option:

svn info --show-item=url --no-newline

Try this:

svn info | grep URL | sed  's/URL: //g'

    You can also make that `svn info | sed -ne 's/URL: //p'` and save the `grep`; the `-n` and `p` mean only print matching lines – Rup Feb 06 '12 at 08:59

    `svn info | grep ^URL | tail -c+6` =) – Ivan Black Jan 31 '15 at 08:24
  • This command also gives me the relative URL, so I had to pipe it through head like this: `svn info | grep URL | sed 's/URL: //g' | head -1` to get just the URL. – David Oct 04 '19 at 01:20

svn info | grep 'URL' | awk '{print $NF}'

where awk $NF prints only the last column in a record

If you have installed Tortoise SVN . Just Right click inside your SVN repo and look for "repo browser". Hope it helps

Adding to other answers. When you want to get the repository URL of your working copy, you can run the following PowerShell snippet:

([xml](svn info --xml)).info.entry.URL
