Staring me in the face. Need some more quotes for the grep and thinking ahead you'll need quotes on the final output lines. All because the filenames contain space characters.

Code:

#!/bin/ksh
#################################################################################
# This script uses grep and gets the working copy locations from the dnaRelowc1.dat file                            #
# and creates a script with the relocate command to relocate DNA build working copies from                      #
# the  svn01g.gdc.net server to the svnprod.nwie.net server.                                                                                #
#################################################################################
#
# Read the list of Subversion working copies directories to Relocate to new Subversion Server
OutputLoc="/scripts/dataout"
bldDirLoc="/webdata/tmpDNAbld/"
wcfiles=${OutputLoc}/dnaRelwc2.dat  
svnRelcmd="svn relocate"
set svnRelcmd

cd ${bldDirLoc}

cat "${wcfiles}" | while read i
do
    #get current host URL from each entries file
    OldRepo=`grep svn01g.gdc "${i}"/.svn/entries | tail -1`
    #Replace each current host URL with New host URL
    NewRepo=`grep svn01g.gdc "${i}"/.svn/entries | tail -1 | sed '/svn01g.gdc/ s/svn01g.gdc/svnprod/g' | sed 's/\/svn01p//g' | sed 's/\/Repositories//g'`
    #print line to change directory to each directory that contains the .svn(dotsvn) subdirectory (cd PATH)
    echo "cd \"$i\""
    #print next line to execute command in each directory (svn relocate OldRepo NewRepo)
    echo "$svnRelcmd \"$OldRepo\" \"$NewRepo\""
done
