Why am I getting this SVN can't move .svn/tmp/x to trunk/x error?
- by Alex Waters
I am trying to checkout into the virtualbox shared folder with svn 1.7 in ubuntu 12.04 running as a guest on a windows 7 host. I had read that this error was a 1.6 problem, and updated - but am still receiving the error:
svn: E000071: Can't move '/mnt/hostShare/code/www/.svn/tmp/svn-hsOG5X' to '/mnt/hostShare/code/www/trunk/statement.aspx?d=201108': Protocol error
I found this blog post about the same error in a mac environment, but am finding that changing the folder/file permissions does nothing.
vim .svn/entires just has the number 12 - does this need to be changed?
Thank you for any assistance!
(just another reason for why I prefer git...)
