Description

On one computer I typed:
$ svn mv
2002-Conference-Paper-33-\[presentation\]-HENDY-KERR-PFAFF.doc
2002-Conference-Paper-33-presentation-HENDY-KERR-PFAFF.doc 
A         2002-Conference-Paper-33-presentation-HENDY-KERR-PFAFF.doc
D         2002-Conference-Paper-33-[presentation]-HENDY-KERR-PFAFF.doc

I then committed this change:
$ svn ci -m 'NZAE conference 2002 updated'
Deleting      
trunk/nzae/2002-conference/2002-Conference-Paper-33-[presentation]-HENDY-KERR-PFAFF.doc
Adding  (bin) 
trunk/nzae/2002-conference/2002-Conference-Paper-33-presentation-HENDY-KERR-PFAFF.doc
Sending        trunk/nzae/2002-conference/index.ldf
Transmitting file data .
Committed revision 179.

I then updated from another computer:
$ svn up
svn: Filesystem has no item
svn: REPORT request failed on /svn/www
svn: 
file not found: revision `179', path
`/trunk/nzae/2002-conference/2002-Conference-Paper-33-[presentation]-HENDY-KERR-PFAFF.doc'

The file does exists on the filesystem.

I worked around the bug by checking out a new working copy.
