Works for me: [[[ % svnadmin create r % svn co -q file://`pwd`/r wc % cd wc % touch iota % svn add -q iota % svn ci -q -m add % svn up -q % svn ps -q svn:executable yes iota % svn diff > foo % svn revert -q iota % svn patch -q foo % svn diff Index: iota =================================================================== --- iota (revision 1) +++ iota (working copy) Property changes on: iota ___________________________________________________________________ Added: svn:executable ## -0,0 +1 ## +* \ No newline at end of property ]]] You mentioned earlier that svn:executable was present with an empty value. Is that really the case? If it is --- which would be surprising, as it's supposed to be an impossible state --- it would explain why you got a conflict.
