Well, yes, the "precise SVN commands that were used to change the
repository". :-)

It would also be useful if you could provide the whole output of the
"svn update" command that caused your problem. Can anyone else reproduce
this? Can you reproduce it, if you check out a new working copy from a
revision before the change, and try "svn update" again? Did you have any
switched directories or files in your WC? Did you have any local
modifications? Did you have any junctions (reparse points) in your WC?

From your description, the only difference between your setup and the
admin's setup was XP pro vs. XP home. I can't imagine that in itself
would mask the problem. This is very puzzling, though...
