Shelve fails for added files in added subdirectory

[david....@gmail.com]

Shelving is failing when new files in a subdirectory are SVN added but not yet committed:


[Window Title]
TortoiseSVN

[Main Instruction]
Subversion reported an error:

[Content]
One or more paths could not be shelved.
The following paths failed:
addsubrg

[Close]


The "addsubrg" mentioned in the above is a SUBDIRECTORY containing a new set of files currently under development that I did an SVN Add for, but did not yet commit (which marks the directory they're in as also needing to be added to the repository too).

Shelving for a repository that contains newly SVN Added in the main repository directory works fine.

Shelving for a repository that contains newly SVN Added in a repository's subdirectory also works fine (as long as that subdirectory already exists in the repository).

The problem appears to only occur when trying to shelve a changeset that contains newly SVN Added (but not yet committed) files in a newly SVN Added (but not yet committed) subdirectory.

Seems the shelve command can't handle that yet.

The command line client reports the same error:

svn x-shelve testshelve .

and you'll get the same error.

That's right: that's not supported yet.

I've started work on Shelving V3 to overcome these limitations. Got a "draft" version working yesterday. Slow progress by myself, though.
