Thanks for the response - I will contact SVNKit then. I really wasn't
sure where to start because it didn't seem to be a Subclipse problem
either. I'll also specify next time it was a child folder not the root.

Subject: Re: Switched flag bug?
Also, this is a question about SVNKit, which is a separate project from
Subversion -- it's a 100% java "clone" of Subversion, and has its
own mailing list and support channels. (See
http://svnkit.com/support.html) This list can only diagnose problems
with the original Subversion C libraries.
