At the very least the error messages are misleading: There is nothing that could be updated in this case. > Server-side copies can fail if they compete with concurrent commits. Seriously, what competition? What reason even is there to allow a purely server-side operation to run into a can't-continue state due to other commits -- and not let those commits (that are late to the race to begin with) fail? The message should really be svn: I don't feel like it, please retry. Andreas -- "Totally trivial. Famous last words." From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@*.org> Date: Fri, 22 Jan 2010 07:29:21 -0800
