I'm pretty sure I am now...however, while I was away, I got: Committed revision 821. Copied properties for revision 821. svnsync: E175002: MKACTIVITY request on '/svn/!svn/act/d9a29da4-969c-9043-8d2b-1 fe43a60c2c2' failed: 500 Internal Server Error svnsync: E175002: Additional errors: svnsync: E175002: Error running context svnsync: E175002: RA layer request failed
If I just run the command again, is it smart enough to resume where it left off? Is there an (undocumented) command swich I can use to resume where it left off? Is this even the kind of error I might hope to resume where it left off? Thanks! DG YOU!...are Big Data <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_data>.
