Re: svn checkout crush on mapped samba share from windows client

I need a solution for this desperately!

My configuration is similar to Alexxoid's, with the difference that I'm
working from a Linux machine. I have a mounted a Samba share on which my
workspace is located.

A little sidestep the prevent unnecessary discussion - the codebase I'm
working on is proprietary, and I am not allowed to have a local working
copy on my laptop, on which I'm working, so a local copy is not an option.

The problem seems to be about permissions. When I checkout my branch to
my workspace, it creates the .svn folder and its files with the right
permissions (and owner), but after that i get a very consistent:

checkout -r HEAD http://office/svn/PROJECT/branches/MYBRANCH
    svn: Cannot rename file '/mnt/SAMBA_SHARE/..../PROJECT/.svn/tmp/entries'

I've tried using an SSH mount instead, which also caused problems (of a
different type).

Any ideas on what to do??

Thanks, Evert
