Build Identifier: 20100218-1602 When deleting an empty directory, the commit fails with the following message: svn: Commit failed (details follow): svn: Directory '/subversion-experiments/dir' is out of date Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Add a directory containing a file to the repository. 2. Delete the file, commit (the directory is now empty). 3. Delete the directory, commit (error message).
This is because parent directory have some incoming changes (probably just revision change). So, before performing commit just use update over the parent folder.
