Hi,

Can someone please look at this issue, I think it is a bug. I have a working copy with some directories, some have private files in them. I don't need one of the directories and exclude it from the working copy with "svn up --set-depth=exclude". The directory remains because there were private files. If I change into the excluded directory I can query the status and update! The update reports a tree conflict. If I choose "mark resolved" the directory is scheduled for deletion. Is this intended behavior? I would expect that an excluded directory is like a private directory, i.e. no status and update is possible. I think it is dangerous if an update schedules something for deletion. It's an update, not a remove. Tested with version 1.8.8 compiled on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.

Try these commands:

svnadmin create repo
svn co file://`pwd`/repo wc
svn mkdir wc/dir
echo a > wc/dir/file1
svn add wc/dir/file1
svn ci -m "Added data." wc
cd wc/
echo b > dir/file2
svn up --set-depth=exclude dir
cd dir/
svn st -u
svn up
svn ci


Thanks,
Holger
