Any way to access the shelf if I can't restore it (file names changed)?

[ET]

I'm using TortoiseSVN 1.11.0.

I shelved a change, then updated, and as a result of a rename some of the files I shelved from no longer exist. As a result when I try to unshelve I get 'The node ... was not found.'

Any way I can get back the changes I shelved? All I need is to be able to look at the code changes and copy them.

That's unfortunately by design: the shelving feature is still work-in-progress and marked "experimental", so incompatibilities between versions can occur. It's mentioned in the release notes:

look in the (hidden) .svn folder. There's a subfolder "shelve" and in there you can find your old shelves as patch files.

When you updated your working copy and not you svn-version you could use "update to revision" to go back to the revision you took the shelve and then apply it.

Thanks. That really has everything I need. It's not just patches, it's the full original code and modified code.
