AW: resolving tree conflicts

Hello!

Follow up question:
If in the process of cleaning this mess a reference to an external gets stuck: how do I clean it up?

D:\PRJ\Tools\040_python\020_Tools>svn status SG_LINT
X SG_LINT\030_Src\lib\sg

Performing status on external item at 'SG_LINT\030_Src\lib\sg':

D:\PRJ\Tools\040_python\020_Tools>

The directory "SG_LINT" is one of those which do not exist any longer in HEAD.
How do I get rid of the external entry?

Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Betreff: resolving tree conflicts

Hello!

Can anybody help me understand how resolving tree conflicts should be done?

A coworker has moved some directories around.
Now I updated my working copy and got around 15 tree conflicts.

I have no easy way of resolving tree conflicts from the update dialog, which would be really nice if it was possible.

After closing the update dialog, I choose "resolve" from the menu.
I see "Status" is "added(+), tree conflict" which is odd, because nobody added them recently in my working copy,
but someone removed them from the server.

I choose "undo add" from the context menu and am asked "do you want to revert <dirname>"?
I find this odd for two reasons.
(1) I chose "undo add" and am asked to confirm action "revert".
(2) I 'revert' a change and I 'undo' an add, but in this case,
neither is actually what I do. I would prefer an action along
"accept the server side by removing everything that was unchanged in WC and remove all the rest from the
working copy database (with a choice between removing it from the file system or keeping it as "not under version control"?)".

On files, i can (IIRC) chose "resolve conflict using "theirs"" and get what I want.

What is the best way of resolving such tree conflicts? Can the situation be improved
or is it just me who doesn't understand how it works?

Mit freundlichen Grüßen
