Question

If I try to update my subversion repo, it says I must run cleanup. If I run cleanup, it says a file is missing. (I deleted a MASSIVE directory of files that failed to commit

Answer 1

follow below steps.

1) Go to the directory where you are not able to successfully clean up via svn.(Root folder or child folder).

2) Select .svn folder in the directory, cut that folder and paste it in the separate drive or separate location (out of svn directory)

3) Now, go back to the directory - right click and select TortoiseSVN -->Repo-browser

4) Checkout the folder(it will not perform fresh checkout).

5) All your items will be versioned again, and it will repair the internal issue of svn, and problem should be solved.
