Question

My problem is this:

Basically if I try to commit a change to SVN and the commit fails then all the files I have selected are lost or forgotten and I have to go back through and choose the ones I want to commit again.

This is hugely annoying and I’ve not been able to find a solution to it.

So, is there any way that I can get TortoiseSVN to return to the state it was in just prior to when I pressed OK? i.e. all my selected files and comment are restored.

I know I can get the comment back using the Recent Messages button so it would be really handy if I could also do something similar to get the file list state back to what I had too.

For TortoiseSVN 1.6:

Settings-Dialog->Dialogs 2->Reopen commit and branch/tag dialog after a commit failed

in TSVN 1.7, that option is enabled by default, and only available as Settings->Advanced->OutOfDateRetry
