svn says conflicted but it's really merged (TortoiseSVN)

Lately I've been seeing behavior where after an update svn shows certain files as "conflicted" but when I try to edit the conflicts, there are none (The "next conflict" and "previous conflict" buttons are disabled and if I scroll through the file, none of the lines are marked red). This seems to have started after I started working from...

Set up TortoiseMerge as external merge tool for SVN?

Is it possible to set up TortoiseMerge (comes with TortoiseSVN) to be the external merge tool that pops up when you encounter a merge conflict using the "svn merge" commandline? I have tried setting my environment variable "SVN_MERGE" to point to TortoiseMerge.exe, but this doesn't seem to be enough. TortoiseMerge just pops up when I cho...

SVN fix folder move done wrong

Someone at my work moved a folder to a different location. But he didn't do a proper SVN move, he just added them as new files and deleted the old files. This of course meant the history of items are wrong. I was away at the time and several edits have happened on the files since, so reverting the revisions and redoing the operation myse...

I have a SVN branch that I branched off from the Trunk several revisions ago. I have merged the branch with changes from the trunk to keep it in sync. Now I would like to finally integrate my Branch with the Trunk. What is the best way to go about this? I cannot use the re-integrate option because our SVN server version is only 1.4. ...

Why does a graph take so much longer than a log?

Why does doing a "Revision Graph" take so much longer than doing a "Show Log"? The Revision Graph starts at the head and counts down to Revision 1. I'm up to over 1000 revisions and it takes about 1 minute to count down. The Show Log is almost instant and only shows the revisions that this project has. There are only about 10 revisio...

Subversion and ASP.NET Website Project's Bin folder

We're in the middle of changing from VSS to Subversion and we have a website project on our Subversion Repo. We've removed the Bin folder as it causes all kinds of chaotic tree conflicts since our development solution contains some Class Library projects the Website project depends on (set up as project references in our solution).

is there a way to search for keywords, past and present, in a (svn) subversion repository

Although a subversion repository is like a time machine where nothing is ever deleted. i still find myself reluctant to totally 'svn delete' things from my codebase if i think i might want to search for it at a later date. So, i will feel freer if i could have some way of keeping a local-copy index of the keywords and phrases in the rep...
