Re: corrupted working copy

Mark,

  I really doubt it is a hardware problem. I was working with
subclipse's own repository using JavaSVN adapter. What I've noticed -
some temporary files created next to the corrupted file. So, I guess it
could be somehow related to the blocked files (e.g. when compiler is
running or file is under edit/merge) when adapter can't change either
resource or .svn metadata and leave corrupted state.

  If anything like that happens there should be an easy way for the user
to restore working copy, e.g. get last resource from the repository.

  Am I wrong somewhere?
