directory mistaken identity

[Michael Spiegel <mi...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I have a project in my subversion repository that has a /src directory
and a /build directory.  The /src directory is under SVN control while
the /build directory is not.  The confusing part is that when I check
files into the /src directory, they appear in both the /src directory
and the /build directory.  When I delete files from the /build
directory and remove them from the subversion repository, they also
disappear from the subversion repository.  And when I check the "svn
log" on the files in the /build directory, it dumps out the log
reports from the /src directory.  How could this be happening? I don't
think I did anything unusual when I configured my subversion
repository.

You checked out /src then used your operating system copy facility to  
make a copy of it named "build". Subversion still knows (via the  
hidden .svn directory inside) what part of the repository it came from.
