Updating Subfolders under Windows
So far I've been using TortoiseSVN, and I just installed Subversion (V
1.5.2) to automate some jobs via batch files.
Everything works ok, but there seems to be a problem updating subfolders.
When I look at the log files of a subfolder I get the correct revision
number.
When I try to update this folder though, it gives me the revision number of
the mother folder.
The effect is the same if I first change directory to the respective path,
and then issue a simple "svn update", or whether I supply a path with the
update command.
Here is an example.
No matter which folder I'm in (sub1,sub2,sub2a or sub3) I will always get
the message "At revision 1000" when doing a "svn update".
If I do a "svn log" I will get the correct revisions for the specific
folders though.
main (rev. 1000)
|--- sub1 (rev. 900)
|--- sub2 (rev. 700)
|--- sub2a (rev. 666)
|--- sub3 (rev. 800)

Not quite - as I understand it "mixed revisions" refers to the base
revisions being mixed, not the last-commit revision. In the example
given, all ojbects have the same base revision (1000) - this allows both
the user and the SVN client to determine that all objects are
effectively in sync - you couldn't possibly tell that by going off last
commit revs.

"svn info" shows both the base rev (simply as "revision") and the last
commit rev. So does TSVN, under the "Subversion" tab in the file
properties dialog from explorer.

What you are seeing is the correct behavior. This is called "Mixed
Revision Working Copies" If I remember correctly.
What this means is that the repository is on r1000 but main/sub1 hasn't
been committed to since r900
likewise with main/sub2/sub2a not being committed since r666
Make sense?
