Re: 1.5.6 Copy To creates error "file already exists"

Stefan,

  The command :
tortoiseproc /command:copy /path:svn://nscrdatabase/test/branches/bew /url:svn://nscrdatabase/test/branches/cmdlinetest3 /logmsg: "Hello" /closeonend:0

which you say won't work, DOES IN FACT WORK (I changed this from a trunk-to-branch copy to a branch-to-branch copy because that is where TortoiseSVN is having an issue). It created a copy of the branch just fine.

Yes, as I have been saying, the command-line works from either server OR client. The problem is ONLY in the TortoiseSVN GUI and ONLY on the SVN COPY operation.

You mention not seeing this in 1.5.7. Have you seen this in 1.5.6? I can't use 1.5.7 because of the end-of-line issues (This one really messes up my files).

When will 1.5.8 be released? Maybe this will solve all of the issues...

Thank you for your responses,

Bob
