    <p>I'm moving from StarTeam to SVN, and I've decided to take snapshots of each of our releases. However, I'm experiencing a problem when dealing with files which existed in revision 1 were deleted for revision 2.</p> <p>How do I commit the snapshots when files are missing? </p> <p>I've tried fully deleting the trunk/src/ folder and then replacing it with the new /trunk/src/ folder, but that seems to cause conflicts with missing files. When I svn add" everything, TortoiseSVN seems to detect that the files were missing, and when I commit it seems to attempt to delete the missing files, but it seems to fail. Presumably this is because it's trying to delete directories after deleting the files in that directory?</p> <p>I'm getting the following error:</p> <pre><code>deleting C:\trunk\src\myfile.h // this one's okay deleting C:\trunk\src\res Commit failed (details follow): Directory 'C:\trunk\src\res' is out of date Item '/trunk/src/res' is out of date You have to update your working copy first. </code></pre> <p>What is a solution to this problem? Surely I'm not the first to run into this issue, but I cannot seem to find anything on google or stackoverflow. Some people suggest running a script to do it, but I'm still confused about the process. Do I need to delete my old trunk folder so that the missing files will get removed locally? Or should I diff and delete with a script?</p> <p>Thanks!</p> <p>Old (unclear) post: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8569004/migration-to-svn-confused-about-deleting-old-files">Migration to SVN, confused about deleting old files</a></p> <p>Edit: </p> <p>This is going from one snapshot to the next. I'm migrating from a different repository (StarTeam), so I didn't have anything in trunk. I just want to check in all the different snapshots and have the files which were deleted be removed as well. Isn't it a bad idea to tag if I don't have anything in trunk?</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
