Hello, I have seen an issue with subversion in which tree conflicts are being produced when creating a branch from a working copy in which not all files are at the same revision. This is happening when trying to merge changes into this branch.
Please refer to the following sequence. Is this supposed to be happening in this way? I do not exactly understand what causes the tree conflicts. Shouldn't there at least be a warning on trying to copy from a working copy with mixed revisions? >svn co https://localhost/svn/test Checked out revision 0. >cd test test>mkdir trunk test>mkdir branches test>mkdir tags test>svn add trunk branches tags A trunk A branches A tags test>svn commit -m "initial structure" Adding branches Adding tags Adding trunk Committed revision 1. test>svn switch https://localhost/svn/test/trunk D trunk D branches D tags Updated to revision 1. test>mkdir d1 test>mkdir d2 test>mkdir d3 test>echo loremipsum > d1\f1.txt test>echo loremipsum > d2\f1.txt test>echo loremipsum > d3\f1.txt test>svn add d1 d2 d3 A d1 A d1\f1.txt A d2 A d2\f1.txt A d3 A d3\f1.txt test>svn ci -m "stuff" Adding d1 Adding d1\f1.txt Adding d2 Adding d2\f1.txt Adding d3 Adding d3\f1.txt Transmitting file data ...
