subversion problems - object of the same name already exists
Posted: Wed Oct 12, 2005 8:22 am
A couple of weeks ago I checked out trunk successfully to my Linux test server.
Today I came to do an update and have hit on a few snags:
1. Firstly when I did a "svn -u status" I get
2. Then if I do a "svn update" I get files and directories deleted e.g.
or
followed by:
If I move my local copy and do an update the "deleted" object is successfully obtained from the server.
Any ideas what may be going on? Is this a windows filename conflict or the like? Where these files deleted and then added back to the repository?
