Is TortoiseSVN really this buggy?
- by John Isaacks
I have been using tortoise svn for a couple weeks now.
I get errors very often. Almost everything I do creates an error. this is with repositories on the internet, locally on my machine or a machine on the network. So I started to keep track. Some examples are below.

  directory is corrupted and unreadable.

  to 'C:\Users\jisaacks\Desktop\DVD

  Commit failed (details follow):
  attempt to write a readonly database
  attempt to write a readonly database
That last one about the read only database happens every time I commit. Say if I am working on the head revision (7) in a working copy. I make a change and commit it. It gives me this error. But if I look at the log it tells me that there is now a revision 8 (the commit I just made) but I am still on revision 7. So I need to run update to be on the current revision that I just commited. I hope I explained that clearly.
Anyways with all these errors I wonder.. Is TSVN just this unstable, does everyone have these issues. Or is it just me? If just me, what could I be doing wrong?
