Can't copy '.svn/text-base/...
I've been running a subversion repository for a few months now.
Earlier today I tried to change the properties on a directory, I think,
and was told that my local copy wasn't up-to-date. Fair enough, I ran
'svn update'. Everything worked fine, but now updating consistently
gives the message:
hephaistos:/share/online/norman$ svn update
svn: Can't copy '.svn/text-base/foaf.var.svn-base' to '.svn/tmp/text-base/foaf.var.svn-base.8.tmp': No such file or directory
Can anyone tell me what that means and how to get rid of it? There was
a file called foaf.var ages ago, but I've deleted it (and svn removed
it, I thought).
Be seeing you,
norm

Ah, yes. Shoulda oughta thoughta that. Checking out a fresh copy made
the problem go away.

Can you try checking out that directory in the repository into a new
working copy.
Sounds like your .svn accounting directories are rather confused.
