I need help to restore my files from svn

[frank wang <yi...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I have checked out a project and very thing works file. However, today
after some changes, when I try to commit the changes I got:

Error  Working copy 'c:\work2\test\include' locked
Erro Please execute the 'Cleanup' command.

At the dos prompt I type: svn cleanup and then I got error message:
svn: Error at entry 1 in entries file for 'test/include/codes': has
invlaid node kind

How can I fix this problem? Now I could not update or commit my code.

Thanks

Frank

It seems that your working copy has become invalid is some kind. What you 
could do is to simply check out a new working copy, then copy over all files 
from the old one that contain changes (don't copy the .svn folders though!). 
Then, review the changes, because the changes from the old WC might be based 
on a different revision than the new working copy, so don't blindly assume 
things fit.

The question that remains is what broke the working copy. Typical candidates 
are tools that simply ignore that the .svn folders are read-only and hidden 
and still perform e.g. text replacements in there.
