Upgrade TortoiseSVN 1.8 issues

问题

I upgraded TortoiseSVN to 1.8 from 1.7.12 on Windows XP. After that it asked for upgrading of the SVN format.

I tried upgrading, but it keeps asking and the command produce no error. I tried to checkout a new copy from the server, and it keep asking to upgrade.

I reverted to 1.7.12.

How can I fix this problem?

I don't know what happened, but it seems it started upgrading the repository correctly. Is it maybe a problem with the cache?

回答1:

The client side format has been changed. (As you've noticed)

Before using Subversion 1.8 with existing working copies, users will be required to run the svn upgrade command to upgrade working copy metadata to the new format. This command may take a while, and for some users, it may be more practical to simply checkout a new working copy.
http://subversion.apache.org/docs/release-notes/1.8.html

According to the notes, you've done it correctly.
- Is there more than one svn.exe in your path? It sounds like an older version was used to upgrade your WC.
- Did you install the command line tools with Tortoise?
- What server version are you using?

回答2:

No Need to delete the .svn folder.

Just right click on the root folder and say 'Upgrade to latest SVN format'. That will do.

回答3:

You may need to reboot after upgrading TortoiseSVN, as described here: SVN Upgrade working copy - TortoiseSVN

That sorted it for me. On reboot, there was a right-click option to Upgrade Working Folder.

I suppose, you did not upgrade your old (1.7) WCs to 1.8 format
Checkouted by 1.8 client Working Copy must be in 1.8 format

1.7 WC sample for two different client's versions

For 1.7 client

svn.exe" --version

svn, version 1.7.5 (r1336830) compiled May 18 2012, 14:19:29

svn.exe ls

Hello.de.txt Hello.en.txt Hello.eo.txt Hello.fr.txt

For 1.8 client (WC if file-level copy of original)

svn --version

svn, version 1.8.0 (r1490375) compiled Jun 17 2013, 18:36:16 on x86-microsoft-windows

svn ls

svn: E155036: Please see the 'svn upgrade' command svn: E155036: The working copy at 'Z:\Hello' is too old (format 10) to work with client version '1.8.0 (r1490375)' (expects format 31). You need to upgrade the working copy first.

I had the same problem though none of the above answers fixed my issue.

A TortoiseSVN right click does not show the Upgrade as you have already done at a parent level most likely at some point. And prior to the upgrade, there was an .svn in every folder, now there is only one at the top level like git. If you have copied any old code or other code back into a folder at some point, or for some other reason, you will be experiencing the above problem. To solve simply:

ensure you are not hiding .svn folders
click at the top level and search for .svn
delete all .svn folders except for the top level one.
right click do an SVN Cleanup

Fixed.

I has the same issue.

In my case, the problem occurs because an added directory. I just select the option correspondent to the upgrade, and the entire working copy can be commited.
