Hi,
I recently created a google code project. My project has been hosted
on a subversion server so far, but I dont have access to other than
through https. I wanted to import the project's existing history into
the google code svn. THis is what I did:
I read the FAQ stating that I have to use svnsync. But svnsync
requires access to the SVN repository (which I dont). So, I had to ask
one of the administrators to create a dump of my project's SVN history
(using svnadmin dump > project.dump). I then created my own repository
from the dump file:
svnadmin create my_repo
svnadmin --force-uuid load my_repo < project.dump

>From there, I checked out a copy of my project (svn co 
>file:///path/to/my_repo),
and svn info reports the same UUID as other existing working copies
still pointing to the previous svn server (not the google code one).
I sync'ed the google code svn with the local repo using the
instructions in the FAQ (svnsync init and svnsync sync).

Everything went fine, except that when I wanted to switch my working
copies to the google code svn, this is what I ended up with:
svn  switch --relocate https://myold_repo/ https://v4l4j.googlecode.com/svn
svn: The repository at 'https://v4l4j.googlecode.com/svn' has uuid
'f47d2976-8228-11dd-9899-c7ba65f7c4c7', but the WC has '3029d069-
df0c-0410-bf5d-8c55c6c14d23'
Weird considering that:
 - I used --force-uuid when creating my local repository
 - the check out from my local repository shows the same uuid as other
working copies (checked out from the previous svn server)

Why isnt the correct uuid picked up by the google code svn server when
sync'ing ?
What did I do wrong ? I can provide the dump file used to create my
local repository if need.

Thanks
Gilles
