Recently, I've noticed cygwin svn getting a LOT of errors during operations. I think this started when upgrading from 1.7.14 to 1.7.15, but I can't say for sure. The nature of these errors are as follows: $ svn up Updating '.': svn: E200030: disk I/O error, executing statement 'RELEASE s6' svn: E200030: sqlite: unable to open database file svn: E200030: sqlite: unable to open database file $ svn cleanup svn: E200030: disk I/O error, executing statement 'RELEASE s79' Sometimes the errors happen, sometimes not. It seems to be about 50% of the time svn has this type of error now. I've tried running the exact same version of SVN (the command-line version shipped with TourtoiseSVN) on the exact same working copies and I don't have any errors. I'm not running any anti-virus (I was, but I uninstalled it a couple of days ago to make sure it wasn't causing this trouble).
