After the thread about copying within eclipse (.svn get's copied as well) I
realized what had been happening with some errors I got with my repos.
I'd usually just delete my Working Copy and re-checkout a new WC,
which seems to fix 100% of my problems.
If I had kept to doing everything in the repository explorer, I would have
been fine. (theoretically)
The scoop is basically, you can delete and move folders in the navigator
view within eclipse, and subclipse will take care of the SVN move/delete,
but if you copy a folder from one directory to another, or even make a
dupe of it, it copies the .svn folder, which it should not do, as you now
have two copies of the same checked-out file, so to speak.
So if you need to copy a directory, feel free to copy it, but be sure you
delete the .svn folder therein, or use the repository view and copy it
there.
(within the newly created directory; don't delete the orig directory's .svn)
I too have had a much smoother time now that I know to watch the .svn
folders. (All the metadata is stored within, see)
A fix is on the way, the main problem is eclipse and team API doesn't
provide a good hook for the copy command.
So be careful copying those directories!
