Merge conflict during commit

[Christophe Prud'homme <pr...@debian.org>]

Hi,

I've got this message in two different dirs in my svn tree

svn ci -m"my message here"
Sending        .
svn: Merge conflict during commit
svn: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: Your file '' is probably out-of-date.
svn:
The version resource does not correspond to the resource within the transaction.  
Either the requested version resource is out of date (needs to be updated), or the requested
 version resource is newer than the transaction root (restart the commit).

If I run commit individual files, no problem.
If I use . for those two dirs where I have the message it fails. Note that svn fails to give
me the name of the file. Where should I look for this problem?

This problem started to appear after I created svn:ignore property for these dirs.

Best regards
C.

You changed a property on ".", then tried to commit.  So you're
effectively trying to commit a new version of the current working
directory. 

But you can't commit propchanges to directories unless they're
up-to-date.  Run 'svn up' first -- then 'svn commit .' will work fine.


P.S.  Read the last paragraph on this page:
