Hello! Our SVN server had a disk failure and some projects had to be restored from the nightly backup.
What happens in such a case, if my working copy is on revision 120 and the latest revision in the restored archive is 110? I did some tests and it looks like subversion detects that (I used TortoiseSVN 1.7.10 on windows using the svn core library 1.7.7). So at least it looks like a newer working copy can not be overwritten incidentially by the restored (older) HEAD revision. But how should one recover in such a situation? Is a fresh checkout and a manual merge necessary?
