Since you already did that, your working copy is now corrupt. Do a fresh
checkout. Anything else won't help and will only make it worse.

Errrrr...I get that it's not something to do normally. I'm just proving that
the issue is local and not actually an access permission to the server. I
further narrowed it down to definitely be the "incomplete" message that is
in the "entry" file.

The question is: why does the "incomplete" cause an update to fail? and how
can I fix an "incomplete" ? The SVN Cleanup does not seem to help with this.
Also, I'm confused on how the incomplete happened. I never canceled an
update or checkout. It just happened with one of my updates all of the
sudden.
