I’ve got a file (mapViewController.m) which is in svn but I cannot commit changes to it. I tried to copy the file elsewhere and then update. The file does not come with the update so I copy it back. Then I can’t commit changes to it.
This is hard to explain what is wrong… because I don’t know.
The rule of thumb for all SVN problems is for when you can’t figure something out, checkout a fresh copy to a new directory(if possible)
Try doing a fresh checkout and then replacing the file and then committing.
Also, make sure that you don’t have to lock that file first.
It sounds a bit like you forgot to do
svn addon the file(or Turotiose SVN -> Add). SVN does recognize directories, but it will not automatically add files in them. You must first add the file(through your subversion client), and then commit it to put it into subversion.
