[svk-devel] Ticket #27459 delete does not work in folders in SVK 2.0 for Win32!

[Jared Hardy]

Ticket #27459 has already been submitted. I am using SVK 2.0 under
WindowsXP SP2. I wanted to bring this to attention, because it seems
like a very serious bug.  It leaves the config file in a corrupt
state, and leaves the repository(s) in an unexpected state relative to
the working copy.
    Any attempt to run "svk delete folder" results in config lines like this:

...
folder:
  scheduleanchor: folder
...
folder/sub-file:
  .schedule: delete
folder/sub-folder:
  .schedule: delete

The "scheduleanchor: ..." and ".schedule: delete" entries never match
up. This happens even if you delete the files individually, and then
later delete the parent folder, before committing. Any subsequent
attempt to commit from a parent folder results in a change list that
does not include any deletes. Running "svk revert -R parent-folder"
does eliminate these entries from the config file, leaving it in a
clean state again.
    I can work around this with a custom delete script for now, but it
seems like a fundamental issue with the config entries like this
should be corrected ASAP.
