I did run into a problem that I was no aware of and I want to bring this up to attention. Also I would like to know what is the best way to handle such case since it gave me little problem.
I am developing multi platform system. When I try to add "aux" folder on linux I was able to commit just fine. Now wen getting update on windows I was getting strange error saying that aux folder can't be created. Googling I found below link explaining reserved words on windows. http://www.blindedbytech.com/2006/11/16/forbidden-file-and-folder-names-on-windows/ Now I try to move aux to misc on Linux and committing it. That was fine but still on windows I was not able to get latest. It looks like it was updating all changes and (creation of aux) before applying (move aux mic). I try to delete misc on linux and committing it. Still windows was complaining. It does not seems like svn have true "drop" to revision. I ended up doing svnadmin dump -r 1:$GOOD_VER, created new repo and loading it back. This is a long process. Are there any other/better alternatives. I was pressed on time so perhaps I did overlooked something?
