Migrate partial svn repository to Mercurial

Question

I need migrate a local folder which is a svn checkout to a mercurial repository, but I cannot make a svn checkout anymore (the svn server is gone), and the folder is not the trunk root, is something like

svnrepourl/trunk/src/folder

In my laptop I just have folder, not the full svn trunk, I tried hg convert but I got this error:

http://repositoryurl/svn/src/project does not look like a Subversion repository

Answer 1

Working Copy is not repository, obvious.

You have nothing to convert, but you can unversion WC of SVN (it haven't history anyway), copy to the proper location inside of existing Mercurial repo, or create new repo inside former-WC folder
