Yes! I removed the 'delete' before the deleted flag, leaving in the empty line preceding it, and I was able to upgrade SVN to 1.7.6. Thanks for all your help!

"delete" means "delete this at the next commit". "deleted" means "commit has deleted this" or "update has removed this". I don't think it's valid for a node to have both set. > These entries refer to folders at the next level that were recently > deleted, and I remember that, for this first one, I accidentally > deleted it irreversibly through the file system before deleting it > from SVN, and I had to do something funky to get it back to a point > that I could check it in.

The delete/deleted combination is not supposed to occur, it's a 1.6 bug that it let you get into that state. You may be able to upgrade the rest of the working copy by editing the .svn/entries file that has the delete/deleted entry. Remove the delete but make sure to leave the empty line. $ svnadmin create repo $ svn mkdir -mm file://`pwd`/repo/A $ svn1.6 co file://`pwd`/repo wc $ svn1.6 up -r0 wc/A $ edit wc/.svn/entries # add delete at line 34 $ svn1.7 upgrade wc svn: E235000: In file '../src-1.7/subversion/libsvn_wc/entries.c' line 126: assertion failed (entry->schedule == svn_wc_schedule_add || entry->schedule == svn_wc_schedule_normal) Aborted It appears that 1.6 ignores the delete and gives deleted precedence: $ svn1.6 st wc $ svn1.6 info wc/A wc/A: (Not a versioned resource) svn: A problem occurred; see other errors for details I suppose 1.7 could do the same but upgrading corrupt working copies is not really practical because we don't know what else is broken. -- Philip This email is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain information that is privileged, confidential or otherwise protected from disclosure.
