Windows filesystems or any filesystem which is not case sensitive
Description
Somebody must have pushed a case senstive double checkin into the svn server, a checkout on a windows box
of the current directory causes all svn clients under windows to choke with following error:
A C:/development/workspace/current/examples/sandbox/inc/head.inc
A C:/development/workspace/current/examples/sandbox/inputSuggest.jsp
Problem running log
svn: In directory 'C:\development\workspace\current\examples\sandbox'
Das System kann die angegebene Datei nicht finden.
svn: Can't copy 'C:\development\workspace\current\examples\sandbox\.svn\tmp\text-base\autoupdatedatatable.jsp.svn-base' to 'C:\development\workspace\current\examples\sandbox\autoupdatedatatable.jsp.tmp': Das System kann die angegebene Datei nicht finden.
which means it cannot find the specified file, a short bugreport on the subclipse mailinglist revealed following answer by the local guru there, after he meditated on the problem:
This has nothing to do with Subclipse, the command line also fails to
check that out. The problem is that you have two files in the repository
with the same name but different case. Your filesystem does not support
that.
Someone needs to delete one of the two files.
