svn update 'skipping'

Hi,

I use a batch file (in WinXP) to automatically download files from the
Subversion master to my build machine and then build the project. This has
been working fine for months, but today the 'svn update' command resulted in
the message 'skipping mydir' where mydir is the name of the directory to be
updated. The relevant directory was not updated and after several attempts
I had to copy it over from my dev machine.

The command was 'svn update d:\..\mydir'

What causes this 'skipping' action? I've done a search on the subversion
site and in all the manuals I could find; I couldn't locate a mention of
'skipping' anywhere!

Thanks,

Ita
