Hello,

My guess would be that subversion handles the presence and absence of the the executable bit, so it tries sets the permissions accordingly, maybe even if they are already correct.

Adding files from a readonly filesystem to a working copy will probably give you inherently "weird" results, since you cant really work with these files?

Best regards,

Thorsten

Hello,

I was adding some files to a repository and encountered error "E000030: Can't change perms". The commit was successful but I don't understand the error.

The files I added were from a read-only source, so I understand the nature of the error. What I don't understand is, why is SVN trying to change permissions?

I assume this doesn't affect the commit but I would like to understand.

Example of error:

svn: E200000: Commit succeeded, but other errors follow:
svn: E155009: Error bumping revisions post-commit (details follow):
svn: E155009: Failed to run the WC DB work queue associated with 'somerepository', work item 17 (file-commit 12 somefile) svn: E000030: Can't change perms of file 'somefile': Read-only file system
