We might start getting them as soon as you tell us
* what system you're using (client and server)
* which version of Subversion you're using (client and server)
* what those "some changes" were in the repository, exactly (with
precise SVN commands, please, not more verbose prose)
* the structure of your WC tree *before* the changes in the repository
In short, describe your problem conciesly and precisely.

Call me a chauvinist, but why is it that people from certain (slightly
teutonic) parts of Central Europe seem constitutionally unable to write
a bug report? Not just on this list, either -- I have the same problem
with customers at my "real" job.
