I have recreated the original problem I had by dumping the repository, removing the newer revisions
and loading it into a new repository.

There is a lot of code in the repository, here is a log of an attempt to do a a switch from a branch
to the trunk with files in the way of ones which are in the switch destination:

>svn switch http://svn.eurotherm.co.uk:81/svn/repo/itools/trunk/
svn: Failed to add file 'wizards/iToolsWz.dll': object of the same name already exists
UU wizards\View.dfm
UU wizards\Main.dfm
>cd wizards
>svn status iToolsWz.dll
I iToolsWz.dll
>del iToolsWz.dll
del iToolsWz.dll
>cd ..
>svn switch http://svn.eurotherm.co.uk:81/svn/repo/itools/trunk/
svn: REPORT request failed on '/svn/repo/!svn/vcc/default'
svn:
File not found: revision '58', path '/itools/trunk/View.dfm'

The status on iToolsWz.dll shows an I because dll files are in the ignore list. There appear to be
a couple of problems:

   1. When Subversion finds an object of the same name which already exists it stops prematurely.
There are a lot more changed files than View.dfm and Main.dfm. It looks like it processes that
directory and then gives up.
   2. A second attempt at the switch shows urls which are wrong. View.dfm isn't in /itools/trunk
it's in /itools/trunk/wizards.

A switch when there are no objects of the same name which already exist works fine. If you need any
more information let me know, I will keep this repository and working copy for a while.
