[TSVN] Q: How to purge Repo-Browser "history"

From: Kyle Ferrio <kferrio_at_breault.com>

I am evaluating TSVN with some "dummy" projects. So I end up re-using file
hierarchies, sometimes with small changes. (You are in a maze of twisty
passages...) Repo-Browser remembers every path I ever used. That's
probably a Good Thing when upgrading from one version of TSVN to the next.

But it's a bad thing if you delete a repository completely in Windows
Explorer and then create a new repository with a common root. Repo-Browser
seems to think the old hierarchy is still there, which is disorienting.

So my question is this: What is the canonical way to purge the Repo-Browser
history? Is this in the Windows registry? Ideally there would be a button
in TSVN to force Repo-Browser to check itself against actual repositories
and synchronize.

Ok, so I did an update on my entire working copy, even though it should not
have been necessary. (I am the only user and I had already committed all
changes.) Now, I get a new error when attempting to branch a subdirectory
in my working copy:

        Commit failed(details follow):
        File not found: transaction 'b', path '/branches/TOP/mySUB1'

Thanks,
Kyle

TVSN 1.0.7

I get errors when I try to branch.

Here's my repository structure:

        /calc/trunk/TOP/SUB1/ ...
        /calc/branches/ (empty)

CASE#1
If I right-click SUB1 in my working copy and try to branch it to, say, URL
/calc/branches/mySUB1 then the commit fails with an error that tells me that
branches/mySUB1 does not exist. That's right. I expect TSVN to create it,
right?

CASE #2
If I right-click on my toplevel working folder, TOP, and try to branch it to
URL /calc/ (not what I really want to do anyway...), I get a different
error. The commit fails and TVSN tells me that /calc/branches/TOP is out of
date. That seems remarkable, since it doesn't even exist.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
Kyle
