Issue
I recently moved my Eclipse workspace directory and now Subclipse complains every time I open a file, dumping to the console something like:
Path is not a working copy directory
svn: '[original (pre-move) directory path]' is not a working copy
No such file or directory
This also happens when I explicitly try to view the history of a file. This persists across SVN cleanups, closing and re-opening Eclipse, etc.
Update, checkin, checkout and so on all seem to work fine, and Tortoise doesn't complain at all, so clearly it's not the SVN metadata that's screwed up, it's some Subclipse-specific metadata. Can anyone tell me how to blow this broken metadata away?
Edited to add: "Team > Disconnect" followed by "Team > Share" doesn't solve the problem.
Edited again to add: I've grepped through the whole .metadata directory and one of the project directories for a unique element of the old path and can't find it anywhere except in .metadata/.log (the error message itself) and some old Findbugs warnings. Very nice.
Solution
I was having the same error message using subclipse with javahl on a project that is out of the workspace directory. Changing to svnKit has resolved my problem.
