Since about one or two weeks I get this error message and I don't know how to resolve it.
Commit failed (details follow):
Unable to create pristine install stream
The system cannot find the path specified.
I neither know what a Pristine Install Stream is, nor does the message contain a hint about the path that is not found.
I've tried a cleanup
, but the same error still occurs.
I googled, but at the time of writing there are only 9 results available, some of them commit history of SVN changes, others unanswered question.
I dug into it with Process Monitor and I found a line (one column per line below)

Looking at my hard disk, I saw that there's no tmp
folder inside my .svn
folder.
Creating the tmp
folder manually resolved the issue.
On my system, the tmp folder was in the .svn directory. So I did rm -rf tmp
in the .svn directory. Then mkdir tmp
in the .svn directory and it fixed the problem.
