Easy way to complicate your day
…. corrupt your .svn file structure on your local system. Then, disconnect your project from Subversion via the Subclipse plug-in. Now, try to get things up and running again.
Steps thusfar:
* copy my working copy to an -old folder (just in case I need something).
* remove the working copy
* Do a new checkout from Subversion (command-line style, since Eclipse is still unhappy).
* Hmmmm…. that didn’t help me within Eclipse. OK, do a checkout from the SVN Repository tab within Eclipse: that’s deleting my new working copy folder and getting a fresh new checkout.
Ugh. I hate it when I have to wrestle with configuration management.
Useful resources:
(1) help files in Eclipse for Subclipse plug-in. (Team –> Share didn’t help me much, but was useful to find out about.)
(2) Version Control with Subversion
