I am trying to commit a file that is out of date. I tried cleaning the directory and nothing is working... the most recent file on my local machine is the one i know i want to use.. what is the standard way of overriding the conflict... should i just delete and re-add or is there another way "resource is out of date try updating"

UPDATE BASED ON ADVICE TO UPDATE*** I am getting a "checksum mismatch" error

Did you try an update? You need to update your local copy to the current version in the repository. Right click, and select 'update'.

yeah i tried that but for some reason that one file is failing even on the update

An update usually sorts out the commit issue. Works for me every time

You need to update your local copy of the file. Right click and click update.

Any changes that have been made since your last update will be merged with your current copy. You can then right click on the file and select resolve conflicts.

If you want to ignore any changes that were made and just use your local copy, the easiest way is to copy your file to another location, update, then overwrite the file with your local copy. However you usually will want to let Tortoise handle merging any changes for you.
