subversion “you are trying to commit files from several subversion working copies”

Question

Subversion has very strange behavior when moving/deleting folder. I had this error Subversion unreliable: "please update the out of date items"

and now this on

Answer 1

Did you used the operating systems move or delete functions? If so, that could also produce the errors you see above. When moving files or deleting files in Subversion working copies, you should always use the svn commands (svn move, svn delete) rather than the operating system's.

When moving directories inside working copies or from one working copy to another, you could have copied the .svn directory, which will cause the "several Subversion working copies" message.
