How to copy sources from one branch to another in SVN?

Question

I need to copy the source from a branch myproduct1/mymodule1/tags/AA.BB.CC.DD to myproduct1/mymodule1/branches/DefectXXX .

To do this, I ran following SVN command and got the svn: E200007: Cannot mix repository and working copy sources message.

C:\Program Files\SlikSvn\bin>svn cp -m 'Defect XXX' http://myserver/svn/myproduct1/mymodule1/tags/AA.BB.CC.DD http://myserver/svn/myproduct1/mymodule1/branches/DefectXXX

How can copy the code from one branch to another on the server?

Answer 1

It turned out that the quotes were the cause of the problem.

This one works:

C:\Program Files\SlikSvn\bin>svn cp -m "Defect XXX" http://myserver/svn/myproduct1/mymodule1/tags/AA.BB.CC.DD http://myserver/svn/myproduct1/mymodule1/branches/DefectXXX
