When committing a "svn mv old_symlink new_symlink", svn:specials is
emptied, but the commit does not complete. This makes it impossible to
check out the symlink with svn from trunk, it does not recognise the
special file type as it is empty. svn cleanup, svn revert or svn update
does not work, even if a fresh copy is checked out. The following script
reproduces the error and makes svn abort during all the subsequent
updates/checkouts:
#!/bin/bash
mkdir wc repos 2>/dev/null
[ -d "repos/." ] || { echo "Repository parent dir not found" >&2; exit 1; }
[ -d "wc/." ] || { echo "wc parent dir not found" >&2; exit 1; }
subrepos=test.$(date +"%H_%M_%S")
repos=$(/bin/pwd)/repos/$subrepos
echo === Creating repository in "$repos"...
svnadmin create $repos
cd wc || { echo "cd wc: Error" >&2; exit 1; }
echo === Checking out empty wc...
svn co file://$repos $subrepos
echo === cd $subrepos
