I have already googled the message, and I have plenty of disk space available on the SVN server (it's about 4% usage of 150 GB).

I have noticed that when I try echo $TMPDIR at the command prompt on the SVN server I get nothing.

What is making this a little confusing is that I only get this message from one location when I do an svn diff (that I've tested so far) - this error is not coming up when I try from three other computers (one of which is testing against the exact same repository, the other two are different repositories on the same svn server).

About the only difference I can see is that the broken working copy is connecting to the server by an IP address where all the others are using a server name (although this resolves over DNS to the same IP Address).

I'm hoping that I don't have to scratch the broken working copy and checkout a new one - unfortunately, this is a legacy project and not all changes have been properly revisioned.

Can you please add the OS and the version for both client and servers? – Mircea Vutcovici Apr 11 at 19:06

On the computer with the problem, try deleting manually that directory, do not commit, but update your svn in your local machine, redo the changes on that directory, it is one directory. That usually works with me on similar errors.

It's the entire working copy - and as I said in my original post, there's a lot of unrevisioned stuff in there (which is a problem in itself that needs to be resolved, but that's for another day) so deleting the directory and updating is not really an option. – HorusKol Jun 29 '11 at 0:05
