svn co problem with specific directory name
With version 1.0 out (congrats, btw), I figured it is time
to get my data from cvs over to svn.
Problem is, I have a directory called "admin" in my cvs
repository.
cvs2svn handles it fine, and svnadmin dump also shows that
it is there in the repository.
svn checkout, though, fails to get the directory:
(~/tmp): svn co https://localhost/svn/test/trunk/admin admin
svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/svn/test/trunk/admin'
svn: PROPFIND of '/svn/test/trunk/admin': 410 Gone (https://localhost)
I dumped the repository, changed the directory to admin-old,
and got the same error.
I then changed the directory to cvsadmin, and that works:
(~/tmp): svn co https://localhost/svn/test/trunk/cvsadmin admin
A admin/...
Checked out revision 108.
What gives? Is the name "admin" reserved?

Doh. Should have had that idea myself ;-)
Thanks.

Take a look at your Apache conf files. 'admin' is a directory name common on
worm-susceptible IIS hosts, and is often redirected to Gone on Apache hosts
so that they don't make a mess in the error logs. I suspect you just need to
adjust the match patterns so that it only picks up admin at the root, not
anywhere in the path.
