Question

When I try to commit SVN reports about 10 old directories as missing.

I’ve deleted these directories quite a while ago. I’ve tried to create the same directory again but then SVN reports them as “obstructed” and I can’t delete them.

These directories are not in the repository either. They are not affecting my commits directly but TortoiseSVN showing these folders in commit dialog. For sake for keeping my commit dialog clean to see other changes easily I want to get rid of these missing directories.

Is there anyway to solve this other than a clean checkout?

It’s in the comments of accepted answer for future reference this is the solution which worked for me:

I’ve created the directory first locally then force to delete and it resolves the problem.

Answer 1

you must delete these directories from SVN using svn delete and then putting them in ignore
