Almost every time I commit to SVN I keep getting a checksum mismatch error. I already know how to fix it (by checking out the folder and copying over the .svn folder after deleting the old one). What I want to know is what causes this as its starting to drive me insane.
OS: Windows 7
SVN Client: VisualSVN, TortoiseSVN
Yes, this error is a bit annoying.. There are multiple reasons this can occur, say a broken network, power outage, or say file corruption. The workaround you figured out is the best way to get over this error afaik..
More details on the reasons and theory why this error occurs: (similar issue, where the md5 was being null; where as in your case its a different value than whats on the server)
