Can't open .svn/text-base/file.svn-base?

Question

I\'m using TortoiseSVN. I just made quite a few changes to my working copy and now I went to do a commit some of the files went through but at one file named Search.aspx.cs

Answer 1

I just checked back in here because my TSVN just triggered the same error.

In my case a simple 'clean up' on the corresponding directories helped.

Answer 2

Hi i meet similar problem today.

cannot find the file .svn\pristine\24\24fd530d4bd82341fb514ab912c9e10adbc4ad89.svn-base And i use the simple way to fix this problem.

First i delete the copy folder of this project And then i look up this file did not exist under that folder.so i just copy a svn-base from other file and rename this with 24fd530d4bd82341fb514ab912c9e10adbc4ad89.svn-base.And then do the clean up operation. After that i meet another file missing.using the same way and at last i fix this problem. Hope it can help you

in other words the solution is create a new svn-base file with the missing files name

Answer 3

Batch solution for this awfull issue.

for /f "tokens=* delims=" %%i in ('dir /s /b /a:d *.svn') do ( 
   if not exist %%i\text-base ( 
       mkdir "%%i\text-base"
   ) else (
echo already exist "%%i\text-base" 
   ) 
)

Answer 4

You can copy working file: C:-----\trunk\Search.aspx.cs

to the missing one: C:-----\trunk.svn\text-base\Search.aspx.cs.svn-base

and it will do the trick.

Answer 5

It looks like your working copy is corrupted - the SVN base file for Search.aspx.cs is missing.

What I do in a situation like this to do a separate check-out in another directory to make a new working copy on the base, export my modified working copy, and copy the export over the new working copy.

Posting this for those who have the same problem where it`s not related to the same filename in different capitalization/case:

I`m not sure what causes it, but this fix worked for me:

• checkout the section in question to a new temp location
• back up (in case this fails) and delete the .svn folder in your main location
• replace the .svn folder in your main location with the one from the temp location
• commit

This worked for me. I had only one file changed. Somehow the .svn folder became corrupt. Please back up your work before doing this.
