"Subversion will not allow a property change, rename or delete of a
folder
to be commited unless the folder is at its HEAD revision in the repository."
Based on my personal experience, the up-to-date requirement also applies to
files that have been touched by a more recent commit.

Hi there,<br>
<div class="Ih2E3d"><br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; Yes, this is exactly the same with Subversion -- you cannot do a<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; commit unless you have an up-to-date SVN checkout. With SVN you must<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; do a &#39;svn update&#39; to bring your checkout up-to-date, and this actually<br>
&gt; &gt;&gt; does a merge for you.<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; Aha, interesting. Haven&#39;t used Subversion enough to know that. I was<br>
&gt; &gt; assuming that it behaves more or less like CVS here. Good point for<br>
&gt; &gt; argumentation.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; SVN is behaving exactly like CVS in this case.<br>
<br>
</div>Now I&#39;m confused. You beat me to installing SVN myself and try for real.<br>
I know that CVS allows commits on a non-up-to-date checkout, as long as<br>
this commit doesn&#39;t touch any files that have changed in the repository.<br>
I was assuming that SVN behaves similar, but was told that SVN behaves<br>
more like HG, in that it only allows commits on up-to-date checkouts,<br>
regardless of the files that are touched by the commit. So what is it<br>
now?<br>
<div class="Ih2E3d"></div></blockquote><div><br>I think the CVS-like behavior described above accurately describes svn. <br><br>From <a href="http://markphip.blogspot.com/2006/12/mixed-revision-working-copies.html">http://markphip.blogspot.com/2006/12/mixed-revision-working-copies.html</a> - &quot;Subversion will not allow a property change, rename or delete of a
folder to be commited unless the folder is at its HEAD revision in the
repository.&quot; Based on my personal experience, the up-to-date requirement also applies to files that have been touched by a more recent commit.<br><br></div></div>
