What is the error message when you commit? I did this kind of thing before and I don't have problem.

The reason behind this is that Subversion only can commit removed directories if you commit recursively - and a recursive commit means you can't exclude something from it, so you must commit everything. So just don't deselect any entry in the commit dialog, then TSVN can do a recursive commit.

Well, that's just it - when the file list comes up, the deleted files
aren't checked, the deleted directory is. I 'select all', and the whole operation aborts because of the directory. If I leave the files checked, and remove the directory, it works fine. It won't 'commit' a deleted directory.

What happens if you just have it select the directory for deletion.
Selecting all the subfiles of the directory seems redundant to me, and likely is whatis causing the error. - Jody On 2/22/06, Oblio <subscriber@...> wrote: > Well, that's just it - when the file list comes up, the deleted files > aren't checked, the deleted directory is.

Um, create a repository on a directory using native file system,
create a sandbox (D:\sandbox) directory & checkout from the repository. Put a directory in the sandbox; update (D:\sandbox\New Folder). Delete the directory (yes to deleting hidden/read only files from the .svn under that directory) & update (dir of D:\sandbox shows just the .svn folder). When I say 'update', I'm doing it on the 'sandbox' directory. When I do this, I get: Error: Commit failed (details follow): Error: Entry for 'D:\sandbox\New Folder' has no URL Error: Try a "Cleanup". If that doesn't work you need to do a fresh checkout. At 2/22/2006 11:33 AM, you wrote: >That would then be a bug.

I'll assume you added this new folder using TSVN and meant "commit" but you should careful to provide better instructions. > Delete the directory (yes to deleting hidden/read only files > from the .svn under that directory) How are you deleting? If you're using Windows Explorer to delete "New Folder" you need to read the manual again. Start here: http://tortoisesvn.sourceforge.net/docs/release/TortoiseSVN_en/help-onepage.html#tsvn-DUG-rename > & update (dir of D:\sandbox shows > just the .svn folder).

Now I'm really confused! You say you're doing update but the error message says "commit"! My guess is that you're coming from a CVS background where these terms have different meanings. If so, try this link: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn-book.html#svn.forcvs and try again. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscribe@...

Tried the following: * checked out my test working copy * removed the folder 'test' with 'testfile' in it * modified some files beneath 'test' * right click on the wc root, choose commit ==> the deleted folder shows up, including the file in it, both marked as 'deleted'. And *both* are selected. Also, if I try to deselect the 'testfile', the folder 'test' also gets unchecked automatically (you can't commit a file deletion inside a deleted folder without deleting the folder too). The same is if I try to deselect the folder itself - the file below gets deselected automatically. And finally, the commit succeeds without problems. So please, give us a recipe on how to reproduce this problem (and maybe you should use the latest version of TSVN?)

So you're saying there's no way to point to a directory and say

Sounds like you want to take a look at "Vendor branches" in the subversion book. http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.1/ch07s05.html Simon -- ___ oo // \\ "De Chelonian Mobile" (_,\/ \_/ \ TortoiseSVN \ \_/_\_/> The coolest Interface to (Sub)Version Control /_/ \_\ http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscribe@...

You asked for a way to do an svn delete from a batch file and Stefan told you the answer. If you want a GUI use TortoiseSVN. If you want the commands scripted use the CLI. You seem to be terminally confused by the term 'update'. When we refer to an update we mean pulling the latest changes from the repository into your working copy. You seem to be talking about dumping the contents of a zip file on top of your working copy and expecting subversion to sort out the mess. But take a look at vendor branches. That may do what you need. A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? A: Top-posting. Q: What is the most annoying thing on usenet and mailing lists?
