svn: File already exist.

Hi folks,

I'm having trouble tagging (copying) stuff. Here's the message I get:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Commit everything before tagging...
svn commit
# Add relevant binaries to the tag
svn add bin/EFA0003.elf
A (bin) bin\EFA0003.elf
# Generate the tag; Copy the working copy to the proper place in the repository
svn copy . file:///I:\Repositories\EFA0003\tags\v2\ -m "Generating v2 tagged version"
svn: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: File already exists: filesystem 'I:/Repositories/EFA0003/db', transaction '13-2', path '/tags/v2/bin/EFA0003.elf'
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The transaction folders are indeed in the appropriate location in the repository. I can delete them easily and start the tagging process all over again. It will simply fail again with the same message. svn clean is also useless.

Any idea about what can cause such a message?

Any help welcome!

Claude
