Hello all,
Has anyone come across a similar problem as this?

Item already exists in filesystem: File already exists: filesystem '/usr/local/svn/repos/my-apps/db', transaction '96-2v', path '/app/trunk/vendor/rails/actionpack/test/fixtures/layout_tests/layouts/symlinked' at /usr/lib/git-core/git-svn line 508

I *think* what happened is in a previous git-svn dcommit I removed the vendor/rails directory (unfroze rails from my app) and now I'm trying to freeze it again, in which case git-svn thinks a file needs to be added (instead of modified) and the Subversion repository says the file already exists.

Anyone know a way around it?!

-- Thanks! Bryan
