I don't know what the problem could be. I have had the client occasionally crash out at a point which requires me to issue a manual "svn cleanup" in the relevant path, which is sometimes one of the external modules. When I say the client has crashed out it is possible that something stopped responding and I was forced to close it down, so causing the problem. Not something that can really be error-trapped, I don't think. Certainly I have seen maplint tests that are out of date applied on tiles near here about three days after the tests.xml was updated. So there are some clients with issues. Is it possible to issue "svn cleanup" commands before the "svn up" command even if it isn't needed? Or will this cause problems for those developing changes?
