Why would you lose them? The upgrade process doesn't delete or modify your files, right? It only changes the contents of the .svn dir. As has been posted (I don't remember which thread; probably not this one, but in one of the numerous threads about this issue), you can just use some sort of diff utility to copy your uncommitted changes to a clean checkout. If you don't have any uncommitted deletes, you could even just delete all .svn dirs in your broken WC, then copy what's left on top of the fresh WC. Something to the effect of: cd $broken_wc; find . -name .svn | xargs rm -r; pax -rw . $fresh_wc (untested, but you get the idea) -- Name: Dave Huang | Mammal, mammal / their names are called / INet: k...@azeotrope.org | they raise a paw / the bat, the cat / FurryMUCK: Dahan | dolphin and dog / koala bear and hog -- TMBG Dahan: Hani G Y+C 35 Y++ L+++ W- C++ T++ A+ E+ S++ V++ F- Q+++ P+ B+ PA+ PL++
