Assert Failed

[kevin kempter <ke...@kevinkempterllc.com>]

Hi List;

I'm somewhat new to svn. I checked out a source tree via this command:

svn checkout svn://svnserver.ourdomain.com

several directories down in the checked out tree I grabbed a file that  
I needed to change. It's a windows ER Studio (Modeling Tool) file so I  
copied the file to my windows VM (I'm running Mac OS X) and edited the  
file. Once I saved my changes I copied the file back into the svn  
directory.



Next I tried to check in my changes like this:

svn commit svn://svnserver.ourdomain.com



and I get this:

Assertion failed: (is_canonical(base, blen)), function svn_path_join,  
file /SourceCache/subversion/subversion-16/subversion/subversion/ 
libsvn_subr/path.c, line 114.
Abort trap

My mac is running version 1.4.4

$ svn --version
svn, version 1.4.4 (r25188)
    compiled Nov 25 2007, 08:20:33

and our server where the repository lives (running CentOS) is running  
version 1.4.2

# svn --version
svn, version 1.4.2 (r22196)
    compiled Mar 14 2007, 20:43:24

Am I doing something wrong ?

Thanks in advance for any help/advice...

FYI, I committed a patch to give a more friendly error message in the 
use case described above.  I've also nominated it for inclusion in 1.5.

You don't give the URL to the server when you commit.  You just do

svn commit

I suggest working through the free Subversion book for a basic work flow of 
using svn:

http://svnbook.red-bean.com/
