Chris, By a "bunch of revisions" what exactly do you mean? Many revisions which were the result of a merge? Or simply many changes made directly to the file (not the result of a merge)? > Paul - I'll see if I can get a test repo up with the error. In the > meantime, would a copy of the svn:mergeinfo help? Any luck? I should have asked this out of the gate (though I'm sure I know the answer): Is your repos public? Obviously the most direct route to replicating this would be with a copy of your actual data :-) Paul
