SVN - can't check out a file previously deleted and then restored in the repo

There're files/folders that were deleted and then re-added to the repository.

svn update > gives me the right-updated revision. files and folders are correctly displayed in the svn repository, if I run 'svn update' 'svn diff' my workspace folder seems in sync but the files/folders are not checked out... any idea of what the problem is?

If I check out the project from scratch once again the files/folders are checked out correctly

Try to cleanup the folder

Remember to check "Revert All Changes Recursively"

If you are using TortoiseSVN, you can try to use Clean up feature in context menu.

You might be running into the following problem

From the article:

With an 1.6.1 client, there's a situation where new files aren't fetched in an update.

This happens when adding a new folder with --depth=empty, which is what TSVN uses to avoid that files which the user doesn't want to add get added automatically too. See the comments in the script.

The solution (thanks wcoenen):

svn update --set-depth infinity

I would try to do a clean 'svn checkout'. Sometimes the local information is not properly in sync in causes this kind of effects.
