possible switch bug in conjunction with file-externals
attached is my shell-script "svn-bug.sh" to reproduce the error.
also attached is the logfile from "bash -x ./svn-bug.sh > svn-bug.out 2>&1"
short description:
I replaced some files in some branches with file-externals.
when switching between these different branches (with real files and with file-externals) the files get lost.
even worse: when being in that state, svn doesn't tell me that something is wrong
ok, I once get an error message from the switch command, but since my project trees are very large, the error message gets scrolled out.
questions:
* did I miss some important informations?
* is this a bug, or did I do something wrong or misunderstood something?
* is the bug already in the issue tracker?
* do I report the bug to the issue tracker or does one of you gurus report the issue?
regards, Schludi

OK, then I'm willing to assume there isn't already a similar report.

Yes please.
If you want, you could also contribute a regression test for this ---
see http://subversion.apache.org//docs/community-guide/general#patches
and subversion/tests/[cmdline/]README in trunk.

yes. I did search for a similar report and didn't find any within 30
minutes.
But, to be honest, I did not understand all issues in detail (would take
days/weeks :-/).

So I'll give it a try...

No, the reproduction script is self-contained.

The former. At the end of the script, copy/ and orig/ are the same
URL@revision, both consider them up-to-date, but are different. (with
a current trunk build)

Have you looked? If you've looked but aren't sure whether one of the
existing bugs covers this issue, we can help make that determination.

No hard and fast rule here.
