Maven, Subversion and Eclipse issue

Team

I've an issue with the m2 plugin using maven in conjunction with subversion.
Since this crosses three platforms I thought I would try both the subversion and
maven list to see if anyone has run across a similar issue and what the solution
was.

When maven dependency is enabled for an eclipse project the maven plugin will
ensure the target subdirectory exists. This is usally a good thing.

When the project is committed to subversion is when issues arise

When a mvn clean is issued either thru the plugin or at the command shell the
target directory is deleted. The eclipse maven 2 plugin will recreate the target
subdirectory

However subversion now complains the directory is out of sync. Most times the
subversion plugin will not allow a force update.

My current workaround is not to commit the entire project -- just subfolder
components when I make updates. I'm thinking there is a cleaner solution to
this.

Using this method I am forced to use svn shell commands to create tags. The tag
feature of the subversion plugin will not work unless all sub directories are
commitable.

has anyone else ran into this? If so what solutions or workarounds were found?
