I’m using subclipse, and always when delete a folder in Eclipse, and try to commit it, the following errors raise:
svn: Item <folder> is out of date
svn: DELETE of <folder>: 409 Conflict (http://myintranet)
Deleting and commiting via command line works fine, but what’s wrong with doing it via subclipse? Is anyone more experiencing this problem?
(I experienced this problem in Ubuntu 9.10 and 10.04; last Eclipse version; and subclipse 1.4 – as the next versions of subclipse have much more bugs)
–updated: Its when I delete folders, not files
Subclipse has many problems like this. It works 90% of time, and then it just DOES NOT work as it should! I am using subclipse, since it is very well integrated into eclipse, and when I have problem or some bigger moves needed in svn (like merging some branch) I use Tortoisse.
I had the thing with directory like you. Then I just run the TortoiseSVN like @luiscolorado suggests, and it helped. Tortoise is so great tool (it has many great features for diffing, applying patches, getting patches and so on.).
Today I had a problem when I have removed a file, and someone had changed the same file! Then subclipse shows conflict (up to this point everything is ok), so I wanted to revert! But then the revert button is missing (disappears when inconflict mode!) so I have to do merge, and merge does not work, throws some kind of error. I didn’t bother to read (maybe I should read and file it as a bug to subclipse maintainers ;-(), I knew the tortoisse will work, and you know what, it worked. There was a REVERT option.
So @Tom Brito, try command line, try Tortoisse, and then you can look at the subclipse changelog and file a bug. I think that subclipse just forgets to show us some directory changes and updates (or it is designed not to do it?), but I may be wrong.
