I have some subversion source I have been working on.
When I try to checkin I get the following error.
matth@blaze:~/dev/myproj$ svn commit svn: Commit failed (details follow): svn: Aborting commit: '/home/matth/dev/myproj/client' remains in conflict
In actual fact, client is missing. That's ok, I don't need it under linux. Suprised it's saying there is a conflict with it though.
Tried doing an update but it shows nothing. How do I remove the conflict and update client to check it out?
svn st will probably show either a 'C' or an '!' for the 'client' directory, you either need to check out the 'client' directory, or use a subdirectory for the commit to make it not look in the 'client' directory for content.
oops, missed the fact that you already have a conflict in 'client'.
Quick solution:
rm -rf client
svn revert -R client
svn up client
Generally works when I encounter these situations. This assumes that there are no changes in client that you want to keep.
did you not check out client to begin with?
