What does red exclamation mark mean in TortoiseSVN?

As soon as you start editing a file, the status changes to modified and the icon overlay then changes to a red exclamation mark. That way you can easily see which files were changed since you last updated your working copy and need to be committed.

What is TortoiseSVN status cache?

TortoiseSVN cache process checks repository checkouts for changes and displays nice overlay icons in Windows Explorer. Instead of disabling the cache, you can optimize the paths where TSVNCache.exe looks for repositories so it only actually looks at working copies and not your whole disk(s) drive(s).

How do I update my TortoiseSVN repository?

To update, select the files and/or directories you want, right click and select TortoiseSVN → Update in the explorer context menu. A window will pop up displaying the progress of the update as it runs. Changes done by others will be merged into your files, keeping any changes you may have done to the same files.

How do I know if TortoiseSVN is installed?

Right-click on the desktop or in the File Explorer. Click TortoiseSVN. Click About. Versions of the components used by TortoiseSVN are listed there.

My Solution: clear svn caches. (TortoiseSVN | Settings | Saved Data) I used Win 7, TortoiseSVN 1.7.9

I had the same (as far as I understand) problem: Svn log (TortoiseSVN | Show log) returned a "path not found" error message for a specific file from my working copy. The problem could be reproduced using the repo browser. Svn update and even commit worked fine for that file from my working copy. Svn log (update/commit) on other files in the same folder worked fine from my working copy. My colleagues didnt have problems at all.

And yes: My Working copy was cleaned up, up to date and bound to a valid URL. The server was accessible via pasting URL to browser etc.

As I had the problem using the repo browser I never thought local (cached) data could cause the problem...

Try to do an "update" on that folder and see if the file wasn't actually deleted from Subversion.
