Hi folks,
I'm trying to get SDL up and running, but before I even get that far I seem to have trouble checking it out of svn. I do svn co svn://svn.ps2dev.org/psp/trunk/SDL but it only gets so far before this fatal error:
svn: Can't move 'SDL/src/main/.svn/tmp/entries' to 'SDL/src/main/.svn/entries':
Permission denied
Bizarrely this seems to happen going back to earlier versions, so I don't know if I'm doing something wrong here. I'm using Cygwin with toolchain.sh installed. |

It's some sort of Windows permission problem; svn creates file A, creates file B, then tries to move B over A, and is getting an error. I don't have any idea how to fix that, though. Make sure you're checking this out in an empty directory, maybe. Or you might try something like | Code: | mkdir newdir
chmod 777 newdir
chown $USER newdir
cd newdir
svn co svn://svn.ps2dev.org/psp/trunk/SDL |

It is really strange. I have no problems with checking out on my FreeBSD box, and I have no problems with some projects on Cygwin, but SDL and Python both barf under windows.
So I guess the easiest fix is to go for a Linux/BSD box and cross fingers, or do what you did above. |
