Add file to SVN (VisualSVN) with the same name

Question

I did an "update to revision" (from 49 to 46). I created a new file with the same name than a file available in the revision version, when I try to add it. I get this error : "already exist". I tried a "clean up" no success.

Any idea ?

Thanks,

You are trying to go rev 46 to add a file that also exists in rev 49? That isn't possible. But why would you want to do that? — Decko

Using "update to revision" to an earlier revision is not the right way to undo your changes! Use one of the many right ways to do this.

Then you can add your file without an error.
