Hi,
given is a checkout directory c:\svn\
with following structure
c:\svn\trunk
c:\svn\project1
when renaming some folders in the local checkout directory structure,
Tortoise doesn't realize that even if it could do
the new structure after rename is
c:\svn\trunk
c:\svn\project-master
CURRENT (WRONG) BEHAVIOUR:
1. tortoise will tell the svn server to delete folder project1
2. tortoise doesn't realize the new folder project-master since there
are already some .svn subfolders and don't touches it :-(
3. other users do an update with their local checkout folders
3.1. project1 will be deleted
3.2. project-master won't appear (since it hasn't been commited yet) :-
(
CORRECT BEHAVIOUR would be:
1. tortoise sees new folder project1
2. tortoise sees: it's already SVN enabled!
3. tortoise realizes: but it was project1 last time
4. tortoise sends the rename command correctly to the server so that
the server repository reflects the change :-)
5. tortoise updates the folder project-master to reflect the correct,
new path in svn server repository
6. other users update their local checkout folders and all data is
correct and complete (same as if you would to the folder renaming with
the repo-browser) :-)
This mistake is the most often done one by all of our users which are
new to SVN. And indeed, they're right asking for a solution.
Regards
Jochen
