Bogus filename in SVN

Question

I am working on SVN, and trying to commit some of the changes I made. But I got an error message telling me that

delete --force C:/workspace/Project/src/main/java/com/test/ml
    Bogus filename
svn: 'C:\workspace\Project\src\main\java\com\test\ml' does not exist

does anyone know how to fix this problem?

Answer 1

Subversion does not generally support absolute pathnames in operations such as delete. What happens when you try a relative pathname? For example, if you're in the C:\workspace\project directory,

svn delete src/main/java/com/test/ml

Answer 2

If Greg's answer isn't the issue, you might want to double-check your capitalization; if you're working with others who are using a *nix system, the case-insensitive nature of Windows can cause weird behaviour. (Such as if a file rename changes only case.)
