"svn co" fails to see "trunk" of a repository
boutell opened this issue · 4 comments
This repository:
https://github.com/drak/doctrine1
Has a "master" but it cannot be seen via this svn URL:
https://github.com/drak/doctrine1/trunk
If I check out the entire thing with svn:
https://github.com/drak/doctrine1
I do get "branches", "tags" and "trunk" subdirectories.
If I check out the "branches" folder, or the "branches/dev" branch, with a direct URL to those, all is well.
Only the trunk/master refuses to be checked out individually.
This article:
https://help.github.com/articles/support-for-subversion-clients/
Suggests at one point checking out the trunk of a repository directly, so it appears it is supposed to work.
Works for me...
$ svn checkout https://github.com/drak/doctrine1/trunk doctrine -q
$ ls doctrine
CHANGELOG LICENSE UPGRADE_TO_1_2 build.xml lib tests
COPYRIGHT README.md build.properties.dev composer.json package.xml tools
$
Aaaand now it works for me too. How bizarre. Closing.
(I wonder if that particular repo was in a specific state when this happened.)
