Svn Commit Errors
My company is new to using Subversion. We are hosting Subversion on a
Windows server running Apache. We are getting errors on the initial
commit of a file, like the following:
$ svn commit Logging.tcl -m "Initial Revision"
Adding Logging.tcl
Transmitting file data .svn: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: At least one property change failed; repository is unchanged $ ll
total 216
This seems to occur randomly for some files, but works for 90% of the
others. On a few cases, we have reverted and re-added the file to get a
successful commit.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

We are doing something like thi:.
Say we want to import a PROJ whose root is /project1 which has
sub-dirs sub1/ sub2/ sub3/ sub4/ and sub5/ all of which have many
files and dirs inside them. The import path is /svn/repos/PROJ/trunk/.
Then if if try to import /project1, at some point in the import
process I get the error. So what we do is the first import just
/project1 with top-level dirs. The tree now looks like this:
/svn/repos/PROJ/trunk/project1/sub1/
/sub2/
/sub3/
/sub4/
/sub5/
Next we import sub1/ sub2/ and so on, one by one.

Are you importing into an empty part of the subversion file tree or are
there files/folders already imported there? I.e., are you adding to a
file tree which already exists?

Martin,
If I am doing a fresh import there's nothing to do an update on!
We've been getting this error often while importing. This happens when
the source tree has a large number of sub-dirs and files. So a
workaround is to import the sub-dirs one by one (but that's painful).
However the import does work sometimes (if the importer is lucky).
Say, 1 in 20 tries :).
Any ideas?
regards,

Do an update prior to the commit. See
