quick solution to “svn: Checksum mismatch …”

Posted by: antonio lorusso

If this error afflict your quiet development day, I’m sorry :D
I had this problem today and I solved in few steps:

  1. make a backup of the working copy in a different directory
  2. delete only the corrupted directory from your working copy
  3. make an svn update
  4. copy back only the modified files you need from the backup copy to the current working copy
  5. commit your changes

Now breath deeply and take a cold shower: I suppose you must be sweat! :D

  1. [...] first post (and second and fifth) I ran across said the trick was to check the entire project out again into a separate directory [...]

  4. I’ve read lots of other solutions to this same problem and most of them are quick complex. This is by far the simplest solution and IT WORKS!
    Thanks.

  5. I had this problem today and all I had to do was:

    svn resolve –accept working myfile

    where myfile is the file that has the conflict

  6. That should be two dashes in front of accept. The upload converted it to one.
