Hi!

I use Bazaar VCS to version files locally on my notebook. When im in the office I merge the changes to a repository on a windows share and also push all the files there (for backup reasons).

My Problem:

The last push resulted in an error, because I added a file with a very long filename (I had that problem before ... python doesn't like long filenames). So I removed the file (I didn't need it anyway) and forgot about the problem for a while, because commiting still worked fine.

The next time I wanted to push my new revision I got a new error:

bzr: ERROR: [Error 3] Das System kann den angegebenen Pfad nicht finden: u'//path/to/remote/branch/.bzr/checkout/limbo/new-8/loooooooongfilename.xls'

translation:

bzr: ERROR: [Error 3] The system can't find the following path:

What I've tried:

  • Deleting the limbo folder--> limbo folder doesn't exist
  • Create the missing path with a dummy-file --> bazaar locks the branch --> unlock --> same problem as before
  • bzr check --> Everything is fine --> No success
  • bzr reconcile --> No success

Thanks for reading ;o)
