I am using Eclipse Juno (4.2.1) with SVN Kit 1.7.5.v1, Subversion SVN connection 3.0.0.20121013-170. I've checkout of my trunk and I want to compare (diff) with my branch, so that I can review my code changes. however, each time I try to generate, it fails with following error :
Generate file in unified diff format was failed. svn: E125007: Path
'/home/user2/projects/Trunk-2 (.../home/user2/projects/Trunk-2)'
must be an immediate child of the directory
'/home/user2/projects/Trunk-2 (.../home/user2/projects/Trunk-2)'
I've tried to generate diff from command line as well, still same error. Actually diff is generated but it's not proper unidiff and tools such as Jira Crucible do not accept the diff file.
Any idea why I might be facing this issue?
This seems to be bug with Jira FishEye+Crucible, however, I've resolved the issue with a workaround.
Resolved the issue by:
Delete property change lines such as :
Property changes on: /Validator.class.php
Deleted: svn:mergeinfo
Reverse-merged /Validator.class.php:r8387-8842
Reverse-merged /Validator.class.php:r8746-8979
Reverse-merged /Validator.class.php:r8860-8862
FishEye+Crucible seems to have some issue with property changes and merge info in Diff/Path files, so it's better to remove them.
Optionally add \ No newline at end of file at the end of the file.
Doing above have resolved problems for me, I hope this to be useful for someone facing same problem.
Cheers

I know there are other questions on here about this issue, but this case is different because it's not caused by an empty repo folder or anything, and I've been pushing changes to this same repo using GitHub desktop for some time. After I type my changes into the summary window, I hit Commit to Master (branch is already set to master, like always). But I get the unborn head issue, along with the alert that my repo's name is too long. Again, this has never happened, and the name has never been an issue previously. Here's a screenshot for reference:
Does anyone know what might be causing this?
The error is due to a file in "Desktop/MY REPOS/The-Tech-Academy-C-Sharp-Coding-Projects/AppData/Local/Microsoft/VisualStudio/15.0_8067392e/VTC/" having a name that is too long. The filename looks like it is generated by a tool, not written by you. In fact it looks like the whole "Desktop/MY REPOS/The-Tech-Academy-C-Sharp-Coding-Projects/AppData/Local/Microsoft/" directory is probably not code that you are working on yourself.
With version control, it is best to ignore any files and folders that are generated somehow, such as this "Microsoft" folder. With git, you can do that in your .gitignore file with the following line, assuming that "Desktop/MY REPOS/The-Tech-Academy-C-Sharp-Coding-Projects/" is your project root:
AppData/Local/Microsoft
In fact, if "AppData" contains only generated files, then you can even ignore just that.
I was using Sublime Text ver 3.2.1 working on a fresh copy of laravel in wamp. I had this issue of 'cannot publish unborn head' when using GitHub Desktop to publish for the first time. Solved by typing something in the title under Summary. As an aside, I included .editorconfig in my gitignore file.
In an Eclipse (Oxygen.3a Release (4.7.3a)) java project, I merged two branches and resolved all conflicts, getting no compilation errors and all tests to pass.
However, EGit (4.9.2.201712150930-r) won't let me add deleted files to the index/stage. The button for doing so is enabled, but nothing happens when I press it.
As a result, the conflicts regarding these files are not resolved (adding to the index is required for that), so I cannot proceed with a merge commit.
The situation is as in the figure below.
What do I need to do to resolve these conflicts?
I could not solve this problem with EGit, but closing Eclipse and running
git add -A .
in the command line solved the problem (opening Eclipse again immediately showed the files to be staged). (This solution came from this answer.)
So not sure this is an EGit bug or if I just didn't know how to take this step using it. However, like I said, using the command line solved the problem.
[SOLVED] Somehow, I managed to not have "write" permissions to the .git directory. So was trying to write the commit and getting bounced.
I've been using Eclipse for a few months, but had been just running git from the CLI. I decided that was inefficient and that I wanted to use eGit, so I started following this tutorial (http://www.slideshare.net/loianeg/using-the-egit-eclipse-plugin-with-git-hub-2578587?from=embed).
I'm trying to add an existing project, so I did Team-->Share Project-->Git and selected the .git corresponding to my project. Eclipse seems to have picked it up, okay, but when I try to commit, I get a popup saying
"Committing changes has encountered a problem' -- an internal error occured.
When I click details, it say "An internal error occurred
Exception caught during execution of commit command"
...I don't even know where to start on this one. I googled the error and didn't get anything useful.
Anyone know how to fix this, or at least how to start debugging?
I've solved my case removing index.lock file from the git folder of the project.
start debugging?
Check the "Errors" Eclipse view for a full Stack Trace associate with that error message
Example of an Error View:
fix it?
If the Exception is a NPE one (NullPointerException), like shown in bug 329611, then you can try a git commit -m "a message" in a shell, in order to get past that initial first commit with a GUI.
As the OP rogueleaderr mentions, the error view and the exact stack trace behind the exception was enough:
Somehow, I managed to not have "write" permissions to the .git directory.
So was trying to write the commit and getting bounced.
I face this problem too, Error tab doesn't show anything more.
So I use GitExtension to commit instead, problem solved.
Using parallel eGit and GitExtension to keep tracking a local git repo is a good idea. It's update runtime on both Eclipse and GitExtension when we make change on each.
I faced this problem. I delete the .git folder and .gitignore file push to upstream it works correctly.
I had this same issue. I resolved it by committing manually from terminal using (in this order):
git add . then git commit and lastly, git push from the local repo directory.
I faced similar problem, It was resolved after deleting index.lock file in .git\ folder.
I'm trying to create to create a tag in svn repo for my project. I use Eclipse and Subversive plugin. Every time I try tagging, I get the following error:
Tag operation for some of selected resources failed.
svn: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: No write-lock in '/home/project/directory'
Where /home/directory is a directory in my project. I'm pretty sure that if I would delete the project and re-checkout it, then all will work.
Does anybody know what is the source of the problem and if there is a workaround to get it working without delete-checkout cycle?
Thanks for raising this issue! I just ran into this with Subversive 2.2.2 on Eclipse Indigo (3.7).
Cleaning up repository didn't work, but I noticed that the local copy has an old revision number (like 2, where the current is 37), although I am sure I committed before tagging.
So I ended up replacing the local code with the latest from repository, which updated the revision number. After that tagging worked like charm.
You find that error popping up from time (2008) (to time (2009)) to time (2010).
Since there isn't any answer, that usually means the problem got away (like relaunching Eclipse was enough to pass that ordeal).
It could be a permission issue, or a resource (like a file or directory) blocked by a process.
But if it is more complicated, you still have the command-line alternative (a svn copy)
VJ. reports in the comments:
I eventually tried svn update which explained me that the write lock is present in another path of SVN.
So I issued a svn clean for the from the root tree. Which cleared the issue.
Post that, svn update worked as well as svn switch.
You need to delete the File called 'lock' in the .svn Directory, then svn should work again.
regards.
You need to Clean up your project.
Right Click > Team > Cleanup
Then you can Switch to any branch you want
same issue here(just tried to create a branch instead of a tag in this case). check out the ultimate solution :
1) commit the code.
2) disconnect the project from SVN.
3) delete the project from the workspace.
4) check out the project.
5) try again.
voila!
its a bit overkill, but this works 100%
For me the solution was a simple "svn up" at the top of the project directory.
When trying to commit to a cvs branch after adding a new file I get this error
Assertion failed: key != NULL, file hash.c, line 317
Any idea how to fix it so I can check my code in?
Both server and client are Linux and there are pre-commits involved.

Not sure what the issue was but I solved it by going onto the server and deleting the file Attic/newfile.v in the repository and adding it again.
The "Attic" is the place where deleted files go in CVS. At some point in the past, someone checked in newfile.v, and at some later point it was deleted, hence moved to the Attic.
By deleting the ,v file from the repository you corrupted older commits that included the file "newfile". Do not do this.
The correct way is to restore the deleted file, then replace its content by the new file.
According to http://www.cs.indiana.edu/~machrist/notes/cvs.html
To recover a file that has been removed from the repository, you essentially need to update that file to its last revision number (before it was actually deleted). For example:
cvs update -r 1.7 deleted_file
This will recover deleted_file in your working repository. To find deleted files and their last revision number, issue cvs log at the command prompt.
Edited in reply to comment to explain what the ,v file in the Attic means.
Are you on Windows and did you rename a file to the same name with different case (e.g. MAKEFILE vs Makefile vs makefile)? CVS used to have a problem with this (and maybe still does?):

CVS was never designed to cope with case insensitive file systems. It
has been patched to the point where it mostly works, but there are still
some places where it doesn't. This is one of them.
You might want to read the rest of the messages in the thread as well.
Perhaps there is some kind of pre-commit check on your repository, see here
