SVN?Yes, the tendency of some applications, even those notionally Subversion-aware like Xcode, to not preserve Subversion's working copy administration area directories .svn , is well known. It should not be beyond the wit of man to write a script to back these up after a fresh svn checkout or commit...

Our experiences here are mostly that Subversion will initially report files managed via a missing .svn directory as obstructed (~), then subsequently reconstruct that .svn directory's contents, but reconstruct it wrongly. Once this has happened, it can be difficult to establish which directories have been damaged, and which haven't. If you need to resort to repair damaged Subversion metadata in a working copy, a sensible procedure might be:
check out another entirely separate copyrun wcaa.sh against that new copy (or a better script you have written to do the same job) to generate a backup of all .svn directories wipe out all .svn directories in your working copy: find . -name .svn -type d -print -prune -exec rm -rf {} \; use the backup made against the new copy to regenerate the .svn directories and contents
At this point, you will have all the managed files in your working copy, untouched, with any any additions, deletions and modifications preserved Any uncommitted changes such as marking a file as added or deleted will have been lost and will need to be done again
But the 'hosed' condition will have gone away. On 8 Jun 2011, at 05:12, Q wrote:

Wow! When did that happen? Very cool.I added this a few years ago. :)I've always used Wolips' Refactor -> Rename WOComponent function.... which is now broken because the files are getting renamed automatically while the refactor is trying to do the same.Hmm, if it doesn't work then it hasn't worked for a very long time. I will have a look at it and if it it's not a simple fix I might just remove the refactor menu item because a regular eclipse "Rename..." should just work.I like the finder rename feature better!Cool hey :) But don't do that if you are using SVN or you will screw up your svn metadata... but you worked that out already didn't you. Git on the other hand... ;)
