This is a usage question which belongs on [email protected]. dev@ is for the development of Subversion itself.
That said, your attitude sucks. You send a message bitching and complaining about Subversion and then expect us to help you? Feh. In your particular case, see the line that says "unexpected return value". The MKCOL should have worked, but something apparently went wrong with the SourceForge servers. Have you tried the operation again? Followup questions should go to us...@. Somebody there may have more information for you. -g On Thu, Sep 23, 2010 at 07:00, Dirk <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello, > > i don't like subversion because it doesn't follow symlinks and steals my time > because i have to write proprietary configure > files for what i do with just a symlink in CVS... but people insist that svn > is better because it is newer and i really don't > care since i will keep using CVS forever.. i just use CVS and .svn in the > same project directories and it works fine... > > until now... svn makes trouble.. the add option seems to be recursive which > is ridiculous.. and it added the CVS directories to > the svn repository.. and now the svn repository has cancer (see below) > > > Log message unchanged or not specified > (a)bort, (c)ontinue, (e)dit: > c > Authentication realm: <https://qscore.svn.sourceforge.net:443> SourceForge > Subversion area > Password for 'noisyb': > Adding contrib > svn: Commit failed (details follow): > svn: Server sent unexpected return value (405 Method Not Allowed) in response > to MKCOL request for > '/svnroot/qscore/!svn/wrk/418ba575-25c3-47f8-a684-d0819db0b3a1/contrib' > > > > is there any way to fix this except re-importing the whole svn repository? > > or will you rather advice me to stop using svn? because svn can't be just > fixed using a editor like it is done with CVS? > > > > Dirk >
