Ah indeed, thanks for the answer :-)
I had actually checked if "classes" was versioned and was "pretty sure"
(tm) it wasn't *g*
Well, anyway: I think Subclipse could handle that a bit "more
gracefully". TortoiseSVN displayed the folder as "obstructed" and not
selected for the commit, but did not cause any other problems. I just
didn't commit this one.
Subclipse shows an error popup as soon as I just switch to the
Synchronize view.
And, as I just proved: This irritates users and I did not know if I
would be able to commit and if the information displayed in Synchronize
was accurate.
Maybe a little item on the todo list...
Anyway: Thanks for the help, I'll "fix" this one.
