TortoiseSVN stopped working after update

[Andy P]

Hi,

I didn't find an answer to this, so my apologies if it's been asked before.

I've been using TortoiseSVN 1.7 for several years. I've got a very basic installation, with just a single directory (with subdirectories) holding my working copies as well as some non-versioned files, and the repository in a sibling directory (sharing the same parent as the working directory). For simplicity, we can say the working copies are in c:\Working and the repository is in c:\Repos.

Everything was working fine until yesterday, when I updated to TortoiseSVN 1.9.4. Now everything in c:\Working has lost its SVN status (no icons, no context menu). All of the data is still in the repository, though, when I use the repository browser to browse to c:\Repos.

So it appears that I just need to tell TortoiseSVN that c:\Working is a working directory, though I don't know how to do that. One thing I thought about doing is to rename c:\Working to c:\Working.old, and do a checkout of everything in the repository into c:\Working and then copy everything from c:\Working.old into the new c:\Working to get all of the non-versioned files there as well. However, this seems like it's probably not necessary, as I would think there's a way just to have TortoiseSVN recognize the current c:\Working as a working directory.

Any help you can provide would be much appreciated!

You need to upgrade working copy. It's mentioned in svn realease notes, https://subversion.apache.org/docs/release-notes/1.9.html in section "Upgrading working copy":

Before using Subversion 1.9 with an existing Subversion 1.7 or older working copy, users will be required to run the svn upgrade command to upgrade working copy metadata to the new format. 

There's suitable command in TortoiseSVN right-click menu as well.

Regards,

Gert

I don't know how I missed it, but that's exactly what I needed!

Thanks much to both Gert and Alf!
