Windows / Linux version
Hello.
I have a dual boot Ubuntu / XP Home system with a shared FAT partition for my data files. I'd like to check out my SVN repository to this shared partition from my server and use it in both OSes. Whenever I perform an operation (like commit) on Windows though, appearantly it converts the working copy into some Linux incompatible form, because when I boot into Ubuntu afterwards and try to do anything with the working copy I get a message about the client being too old. Obviously, I've checked that I have the most recent version on both OSes.
Is it actually possible to do this, or do I just make a checkout on my Windows disk, and one on my Linux disk, and use the remote repo to synch them? (That would work, but would be a little inefficient and won't help me when I don't have a connection to the server and want to switch OSes).
Kind regards
Michael.

What version do you actually have on both OSes? Sounds like you have
1.4 on Windows and 1.3 on Linux.

Re: Re[2]: Windows / Linux version

Good day,
Sorry, I forgot to mention that they're both using the ".svn" mode.
I have now tried using 1.4.3 for my windows ( so that both my windows and
linux use 1.4.3 ), updated my source, then switch the linux. After doing so,
I am now able to update my sources with no problems...not sure though if
that is the correct solution, because I am still encountering "Skipped '.'"
in some of my sources.
Steps to reproduce.
1. Boot to linux
2. use "svn update" on a source
* you will get an error message stating that you do not have permissions to
do so
3. use "sudo svn update" on that same source [ and enter your password ]
Expected Result:
* The source will be updated.
Actual Result:
* Skipped '.'
Note that if you remove step#2, there would be problem whatsoever. But if a
permission fails on a source, it seems that I can no longer access it via
svn.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Franz

Good day,
I have a similar problem to this.
I have subversion 1.4.2 in my windows and I used that to checkout a source.
Then i switched to my kubuntu ( fiesty fawn ) and tried to update that
source with my subversion 1.4.3, and it complained that svn: '.' is not a
working copy.
Any ideas why?
Thanks,
Franz

More specifically, make sure you check by typing
svn --version
because when I had mixed binaries and dynamic library files installed,
I specifically used the svn 1.2 but --version showed 1.4.2.
