One of the main problems where this affects me is having a large number of 
people using a checkout, if there's something I need to revert I used to be 
able to just update those specific files then revert and commit to the main 
repo folder quite quickly, but because of this error I now have to fully 
update the folder adding quite a bit of time to getting sorted and those 
reverts out fast.

Just a bit surprised there isn't an option to stop or ignore this error 
from coming up if we want to choose not to worry this for a folder, as it 
doesn't mind after we update it anyway - would this be easy to add? It just 
seems a bit frustrating to get this error every time I go to commit now, 
even if there's nothing new in an update.

Cheers,
Kieren
