Hi Nathan,

See my responses further below as [MK 2022-07-13: ].

Not sure whether my email properly has the [In-Reply-To] filled-in to end up in 
https://lists.apache.org/thread/n5vo9kznz9z2gzwy7kym9nj5rl9fw8mw. As I am 
forced to use Outlook, and googling doesn't tell me how to achieve 
[In-Reply-To] in Outlook, I can only hope my response gets there.

Best regards,
Matthias

We've seen various reports of this exact error on that exact line over the 
years and it would be nice to finally track down the cause(s).
(One thing that could help is to make SVN report the path in question together 
with the error.)
[MK 2022-07-13:
In my case, the path is 
"\\<SomeServer>\<SomeRoot>\<SomeFolderHierarchy>\<MyProject>\Content".]

Not sure if I understand correctly, but is the laptop being undocked while the 
commit is in progress? If so, I wouldn't expect anything to work correctly due 
to the disconnection. If it's being undocked after the commit is complete, what 
(if any) other steps do you take that lead to the error?
[MK 2022-07-13:
Yes, the laptop accidentally being undocked while the commit is in progress. 
However, as there also is WLAN, the network is only interrupted for the short 
moment to switch from LAN to WLAN. The exception happens when undocking, i.e. 
when loosing LAN connection.
I understand this is not a typical use case, still I expect TSVN to handle such 
situation and issue a proper error message, rather than crashing.]

You don't need an apache user ID (though I can see why the lists.apache.org 
interface is confusing on that point). You can reply to any email as long as 
you can get the email's Message-ID value from the raw message. This was 
explained on the #svn-dev channel on IRC on
18 July 2021 at [1]. I'll copy that text here -- note that we no longer have 
mail-archives.apache.org. It has been superseded by lists.apache.org. To get 
the raw message, and hence the Message-ID, from lists.apache.org, hover over 
the lower right corner of the message in question until 3 icons appear and then 
click the "View raw source" (paper-with-folded-corner icon). Other than that 
substitution, the rest is the same:

07:52 [Arfrever] Songro: If you want that your e-mail appear in archives as 
reply to another e-mail, you can:
07:53 [Arfrever] 1. In mail-archives.apache.org, use "View raw message" and get 
Message-ID value.
07:54 [Arfrever] 2. In your e-mail, add "In-Reply-To: ${message_id}".
07:55 [Arfrever] (This must be in headers, not in content)
08:07 [Arfrever] You can search in internet for how to do it in your e-mail 
software.
08:07 [Arfrever] E.g. about Thunderbird:
https://superuser.com/questions/1177870/how-to-manually-set-the-in-reply-to-header-in-thunderbird

Since this is already a new mail thread and it links to the old one, it's not 
necessary to do this now, so just for future reference... :-)

Hope this helps!
