Hi Stefan Thanks for your reply. Windows task manager shows 0% cpu for the Windows command processor running svn update. I don't have access to the server at the moment (it runs on Linux and is under corporate control). A colleague tried a fresh checkout with a sparse checkout of branches (immediate directories only). That ran ok. But an update of a branch, setting depth to infinity, hangs. Updates to trunk are ok. BR David
