(Actually at least the two most recent snapshots have this problem). Here is the error: "svn: Can't move '.svn/tmp/entries' to '.svn/entries': Permission denied" LS output: $ ls -al .svn total 2 drwxr-xr-x+ 6 Owner None 0 Aug 7 16:11 . drwxr-xr-x+ 3 Owner None 0 Aug 7 16:09 .. -r--r--r-- 1 Owner None 192 Aug 7 16:09 entries -r--r--r-- 1 Owner None 2 Aug 7 16:09 format drwxr-xr-x+ 2 Owner None 0 Aug 7 16:09 prop-base drwxr-xr-x+ 2 Owner None 0 Aug 7 16:09 props drwxr-xr-x+ 2 Owner None 0 Aug 7 16:09 text-base drwxr-xr-x+ 5 Owner None 0 Aug 7 16:11 tmp $ ls -al .svn/tmp total 1 drwxr-xr-x+ 5 Owner None 0 Aug 7 16:11 . drwxr-xr-x+ 6 Owner None 0 Aug 7 16:11 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 Owner None 192 Aug 7 16:11 entries drwxr-xr-x+ 2 Owner None 0 Aug 7 16:09 prop-base drwxr-xr-x+ 2 Owner None 0 Aug 7 16:09 props drwxr-xr-x+ 2 Owner None 0 Aug 7 16:09 text-base If I were to take a guess, i'm thinking it the "-r--r--r--" permission on .svn/entries that is causing the problem. Something probably changed in the permissions handling, causing the breakage. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
