Re: Can I have the same folder in twice?

Apperently, I have a problem with this sort of setup :

/svnroot/project1/foo.txt

/svnroot/project1/dir1/foo.txt

it doesn't like having two files with the same name, even in diff. 
directories. This is kind of limiting things. Is there a workaround 
(other than changing names)?

Thank you,
Gabriel

Yes, that is logical, but I even tried to delete everthing, all my
repositories with rm -fr svnroot<br>
<br>
and then recreate them all, and upon my trying to create the project, i
get a msg that the working copy with a different URL already exists at
the checkout destination. But I deleted that destination! Is there a
central svn database somewhere? I thought that the DB existed in each
repository. Is there a way to see wll repositories on my system? And is
there a way of deleting repositories?<br>

Thanks,<br>

I'm puzzled.  I have a repository full of files named Makefile, in
many different directories.  It works just fine, as of course it has
to.
