I'm guessing that it is empty, since it doesn't make sense that undocking would just make it loose the \\ or drive letter. I'm not sure if this path is being supplied directly from TSVN or if it is constructed within Subversion code, and I'm not sure if some code could be added to check for an empty path when the network connection is lost. However fast the network is reconnected there will always be a moment with no network. The part of the code that assert is the part that is reading the WC database on the network drive. In this case we are not even communicating with Subversion code on the other end but we are relying on Windows to provide us with access to the SQLite database file. So even if the code would not assert, you might end up with a situation where Windows is telling SQLite "sorry but that file is not available" (which in turn is telling Subversion something similar). Conceivably there could be a "retry" logic that wait for a little while and retry every operation that could be interrupted but I think that will be a significant amount of work, and I'm not sure that will even be considered desirable. All above being said, please also be aware of what TSVN and SQLite say about storing WCs on network shares: * https://tortoisesvn.net/faq.html#wconshare * https://www.sqlite.org/faq.html#q5 Kind regards, Daniel Sahlberg
