Description

Philip Martin says:

Yikes!  Something is seriously wrong.  This script

REPO=file://${PWD}/repo
svnadmin create repo
svn mkdir  $REPO/trunk $REPO/branch
svn cp     $REPO/trunk $REPO/branch/b1
svn mkdir  $REPO/trunk/foo
svn co     $REPO/trunk wc
ls wc
svn switch $REPO/branch/b1 wc

gives this error

../svn/subversion/libsvn_subr/io.c:682: (apr_err=2, src_err=0)
svn: No such file or directory
svn: svn_io_set_file_read_write: failed to set file 'wc/.svn/log'
read-write

and

$ ls wc
ls: wc: No such file or directory

it's deleted my working copy.

Please raise an issue.
