When trying to perform an SVN update on a directory I get the above

  • 0

When trying to perform an SVN update on a directory I get the above error, and as a result the changes to the files within this directory don’t get pulled down to my working copy. If I go to the repo-browser it can see the changes that have been made, but this error just seems to kill the update pull all together.

I’ve tried deleting the files in question and performed an SVN update, deleting the directory and even deleting the top-level directory and re-checking out the entire repository, but still get the same error. After extensive googling this was the only approach I could find that had had some success.

I am running TortoiseSVN: 1.7.9 and Subversion 1.7.7

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    Sorted, had to do a top level delete of my local copy as well as delete the hidden .svn folder being the key part. Then just do a fresh checkout of the repository. Hope this is of some use to anybody who runs into this in the future at least.
