FWIW, my observations are that an incomplete working copy is usually *broken* and one has to do a fresh checkout. Mostly this happens when the .svn meta-files do no longer match the working copy files. This usecase _can_ happen when a program holds an exclusive lock on a file and one runs "svn up" that would have to update the locked file too. svn (1.6) would at this point fail and leave the .svn files in a strange undefined state, namely "incomplete". I did not yet try how 1.7 behaves.

So, I still have the same problem and am hoping there is fix for it. Awaiting your reply, Wabe Koelmans. _____ From: wabekoelm...@hotmail.com To: users@subversion.apache.org Subject: Error when updating Date: Fri, 21 Oct 2011 14:37:37 +0000 Hello, When I click SVN update I get an error message (see below). When I first commit something (doens't matter what), I can update only the same folder after the commit. For all other folders the update still doesn't work. Once I get the error message it will pop up for all SVN folders. Until I commit something, again, only that folder will be available for update. The problem arose immediately after installing SVN 1.7 Do you have a solution for this? With kind regards, Wabe Koelmans. P.S.
