SVN how to resolve "local add, incoming add upon update" on a *folder*?

Here is my scenario: Assume we have an SVN repo with the following content: myfolder myfolder\file.txt Now I create two checkouts of this repo, co1 and co2. In co1 we modify file.txt. In co2 we: - svn delete myfolder - svn commit - Create a new folder named myfolder - svn add myfolder - svn commit Now if I attempt an update in co1 I get a tree conflict: ``` A + C myfolder > local edit, incoming delete upon update M + myfolder\file.txt ``` I want to keep myfolder and the modified file, so I resolve the tree conflict: ``` svn resolve --accept working folder ``` Now if I try to commit, I get "svn: Directory '/myfolder' is out of date". If I try to resolve this using svn up myfolder, I get a tree conflict again: ``` A + C folder > local add, incoming add upon update M + myfolder\file.txt ``` Okay, so we try svn resolve --accept working folder again. But we still can't commit, we get the same message that "svn: Directory '/myfolder' is out of date", if we do svn up myfolder, we get right back to the last tree conflict. What is the correct procedure to resolve this type of conflict (when we wish to keep myfolder and its changes)? EDIT: Windows cmd line script to illustrate: ``` rmdir /S /Q C:\svntest mkdir C:\svntest cd C:\svntest svnadmin create repo svn co file:///c:/svntest/repo co1 svn co file:///c:/svntest/repo co2 cd co1 mkdir folder echo content > folder\file.txt svn add folder svn commit folder -m "" cd C:\svntest\co2 svn up cd C:\svntest\co1 svn del folder svn commit -m "" mkdir folder svn add folder svn commit -m "" cd C:\svntest\co2 echo changed_content > folder\file.txt svn up svn resolve --accept working folder svn commit -m "" svn up folder svn resolve --accept working folder svn commit -m "" ``` And here is the output of running that script (note the commit failures at the end): ``` C:\>rmdir /S /Q C:\svntest C:\>mkdir C:\svntest C:\>cd C:\svntest C:\svntest>svnadmin create repo C:\svntest>svn co file:///c:/svntest/repo co1 Checked out revision 0.
