SVN (Subversion) Problem "File is scheduled for addition, but is missing" - Using Versions
I'm using Versions for SVN.
I attempt to commit and get this message:
Commit failed (details follow): '/Users/mike/Sites/mysite.com/astss-cvsdude/Trunk/cart/flashfile.swf' is scheduled for addition, but is missing
I suppose this is because I had added files to the repo, and then deleted them via the filesystem.
I'd like to have it simply make note of my change, and apply the change to the repo.
How can I get around this?
Answer
I'm not sure what you're trying to do: If you added the file via
svn add myfile
you only told svn to put this file into your repository when you do your next commit. There's no change to the repository before you type an
svn commit
If you delete the file before the commit, svn has it in its records (because you added it) but cannot send it to the repository because the file no longer exist.
So either you want to save the file in the repository and then delete it from your working copy: In this case try to get your file back (from the trash?), do the commit and delete the file afterwards via
svn delete myfile
svn commit
If you want to undo the add and just throw the file away, you can to an
svn revert myfile
which tells svn (in this case) to undo the add-Operation.
EDIT
Sorry, I wasn't aware that you're using the "Versions" GUI client for Max OSX. So either try a revert on the containing directory using the GUI or jump into the cold water and fire up your hidden Mac command shell :-) (it's called "Terminal" in the german OSX, no idea how to bring it up in the english version...)
