I accidentally deleted a folder in SVN and added it back immediately. I ran into an issue with this and my solution ended up removing the folder completely from my local copy as well as the server copy. I can do updates and commits without problems on any other file or folder, but if I try to create a folder with the same name, add, and commit, it gives me the following error:
svn: Server sent unexpected return value (405 Method Not Allowed) in response to MKCOL request for ‘/svn/www/!svn/wrk/9de0d765-2203-456c-af16-58e792ec7ac0/trunk/htdocs/solutions/medical’
I have run countless cleanups, commits, updates, etc. Nothing resolves the issue. Ideas?
FYI, I do not have the option of renaming the top level folder.
My guess is that the folder you are trying to add already exists in SVN. You can confirm by checking out the files to a different folder and see if trunk already has the required folder.
