Hi, I searched google, I search the subversion doc (here I searched "obstruct" and found only a python sample).
So my question (subversion.apache.org is just down, so I couldnt look at the faq): I have 2 files which are version controled: a.txt b.txt The result I want to get is: a.txt -> b.txt b.txt One possibility is: svn rm a.txt svn ci -m " removed a" ln -s b.txt a.txt svn add a.txt svn ci -m "added a as symlink" I also tried: svn rm a.txt ln -s b.txt a.txt svn ci -m "replaced with as symlink" But this does not work, I get an error "obstructed ..." svn stat tells me the file has a status "~" Stragely I got with rapidsvn a file status "R", but at the commandline I didnt figure out how to get this. Question: what is the "should-be" way of doing such a replacement???? ... it would be nice to put this in the official doc, so a lot of developers could save time posting in a lot of forums .... Im a little bit frustrated,sorry. But anyway, wish you a happy new year :-) Anton
