New - SVN rejects valid target path with cryptic error msg

[Mike Lewit <Mi...@pmc-sierra.com>]

Hi,

 

I am running a perl script that invokes svn merge commands and after
many 

merges, svn consistently rejected one particular file with a cryptic
path and a 

path not found message.

 

command issued in merge.pm:

svn merge --depth empty --non-interactive http://bby-

svn:3691/svn/projects/PM73232_01/trunk/srcve24x6g_diags/etc/ddr/readme.t
xt@62443

 http://bby-

svn:3691/svn/projects/PM73232_01/trunk/srcve24x6g_diags/etc/ddr/readme.t
xt@62735

 ./srcve24x6g_diags/etc/ddr/readme.txt

 

svn: '/svn/!svn/bc/62436/main/srcve24x6g_diags/etc/ddr/readme.txt' path
not 

found

 

I found a similiar error message in issue 3481. Anyone know what causes
SVN to 

sometimes reject a valid path? I ran thru 100+ merges before that and
the file 

is simple,no SVN properties. I requested a diff with TortoiseSVN and it
came 

back with the same error message. I rebooted and entered a manual
cmdline merge 

and it worked.

 

Thanks,

Mike
