Svn error: .. has unexpectedly changed special status

Tue, 07/20/2010 - 23:53 — sham

To solve this delete the svn:special property by doing this:

svn propdel svn:special FILETOCHANGE

You can also use svn proplist FILETOLOOKAT to see the svn properties on that file.

I had just used this script: http://arctic.org/~dean/scripts/unln to unlink but keep a copy of the symlinked file.
Seems to work quite well.

already under version control svn aptana

Have you got the "already under version control" error message when commiting or trying to add to a repo from aptana? I found it was because I had copied folders from another part of my project that was already in SVN. It also copied the .svn folders so Aptana thought it was already in the SVN. The fix is to delete the .svn folders (don't forget they can also be in the sub folders). 
find ./ -name ".svn" | xargs rm -Rf
