SVN Update does not add new files

[Martin Cerny <ce...@gmail.com>]

Hi,
I'm experiencing a bug with SVN.
I have a branch of our main project. I did some work on it in school
and then wanted to update the status of my working copy at home. The
files that were changed were correctly reflected in the working copy,
but new files that I added at school were not added to my working copy
at home. I can see the files in correct place while browsing the
repository with TortoiseSVN. I tried updating both with TortoiseSVN
1.6.6, and via NetBeans plugin using svn version 1.6.6 and then with
version 1.6.11 to no avail. Switching to the trunk and then back to
the branch fixes the problem.

The work at school was done using some older version of TortoiseSVN
(1.6.2 I guess, but I am not certain)
Our subversion server is version 1.6.6. I am sorry, but I can't grant
you acces to the repository itself, since it's a company server.

There seems to be a similar issue at google code support:

If I remember correctly TortoiseSVN 1.6.2 is based on Subversion 1.6.1,
which still had the bug that was fixed in Subversion 1.6.2:
  * set depth=infinity on 'svn add' items with restricted depth (r37607)

Another possible cause for this issue (but far less likely) is issue #3569
(http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=3569): svn update
--depth <DEPTH> allows making a working copy incomplete

The first issue can be resolved by using 'svn update --set-depth infinity'
on the working copy (and is fixed in later clients). The second can only be
resolved by a new checkout and isn't fixed yet.

And of course it could be another issue, so if you have a different
reproduction recipe to show, please send it to this list. (In all cases I
heard it was one of these two reasons... and in most cases the working copy
was marked sparse long ago, without anybody noticing)
