That definitely points to externals as the likely cause of the problem. I'll note that 28594 (the first rev reported by svnversion) is the one of the 'Prerequisites' external item. So I'd start by analyzing that one a bit more. Specifically: is that a file external? If so, can you share its external definition (the value in the svn:externals property that defines it) -- feel free to strip out confidential information such as hostname of your server etc. I'm mainly interested to see in what format it's specified, if it has a peg revision, ... With that info one might be able to reproduce it on a test repository, so we can take a closer look. -- Johan
