RE: svn: E235000: error when performin a svn switch with SVN 1.7.4

HI Philip,
Ive recreated it quite simply.

How long will it take for a new drop of SVN with a fix for this to be released?

Thx
Derek

Hi Philip,
Thanks for looking into this.

Im trying to create a simple recipe to illustrate the problem.
While I was creating the recipe this happened.

# Currently I have derek1.txt as a file
[derek.wallace_at_dublogon1 svn_links]$ l

drwxrwxr-x 3 derek.wallace Intune Staff 1024 Apr 18 12:26 .

drwxrwxr-x 2 derek.wallace Intune Staff 80 Apr 18 12:26 folder1

# Delete the file
[derek.wallace_at_dublogon1 svn_links]$ rm derek1.txt

# Create Link with the same name
[derek.wallace_at_dublogon1 svn_links]$ ln -s folder1/derek1.txt

[derek.wallace_at_dublogon1 svn_links]$ l

drwxrwxr-x 2 derek.wallace Intune Staff 80 Apr 18 12:26 folder1

# Tran and commit.
[derek.wallace_at_dublogon1 svn_links]$ svn ci -m ""
svn: E145001: Commit failed (details follow):

[derek.wallace_at_dublogon1 svn_links]$

Ill continue to try and create the receipe.

Thx
Derek

An ugly workaround is to delete the problem file to provoke a tree
conflict:

svn cleanup wc
svn rm wc/A/g
svn up -r2
svn revert wc/A/g

This does require that you identify the problem file.
