SVN commit failed "working copy is not up to date, file system has no item"

I'm using SVN (only for 1 day now) on Eclipse (for Android development) and using Subclipse plugin for SVN

I got an error when trying to commit my project.

The error was that the AndroidManifest.xml file was out-of-date, that the file system had no such item and the file not found "transaction 15-k" and then url to file location of AndroidManifest.xml on the server from the tag that I think was the one I used to restore the project before this error started occurring.

Couldn't answer my own question, so I'm writing the answer here

I know now what is happening...

I had restored my project from a tag yesterday.

Then I had renamed this tag in repository... from a0001 to a001

but for some reason, which I do not yet fully understand (but I guess will after I read all about subversion in the manual - but that might take a while).... when I try to commit my working copy, it tries to commit to this restored tag a0001, and not to my main project trunk. And I cannot figure out anyway to edit the destination URL in the dialog after I select "commit".

p.s. if someone could tell me how I can tell it to submit my project (working copy - files from my computer) again to the main project trunk, that would great. Otherwise probably I will mess up some files in the SVN while experimenting trying to figure out how to do this.

well, I found the solution to my problems... I found there was an alternative called Git... I installed the Eclipse plugin and I like it more...

I would suggest updating AndroidManifest.xml (only that file)... after updating, some conflicts may come out. If that is the case, resolve them and then commmit.
