I'm using Eclipse Juno on Mac 10.7.5, SVN 1.7 and the Eclipse Subversive plugin. Occassioanlly, when I try and commit changes from my project (by right clicking on the project from the package explorer, selecting "Team" -> "Commit"), I get the error:

Some of selected resources were not committed.
Some of selected resources were not committed.
svn: E200007: Commit failed (details follow):

svn: E200007: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: E200007: CHECKOUT can only be performed on a version resource [at this time].

I have verified that I have checked out the latest version of my project. How can I take care of these repeated errors?

Cleaning up worked for me:

right click on the project -> team -> cleanup / refresh

    FWIW, this seems to be related to checking out an SVN repository with one version of the SVN client then trying to manage it in Eclipse using a newer version.

    Sometimes I had to force the cleanup using SVN Tortoise, since Eclipse cleanup didn't work.

    Thanks @David. I did the checkout with Tortoise, but tried to commit in Eclipse.

    cleanup from Eclipse is not working for me. Cleanup from SVN Tortoise worked great!

    I had to do 'svn cleanup' from the command line. After that in Eclipse I do refresh, then team->refresh/cleanup

As I commented in other post...

For those that project -> team -> cleanup doesn't work in eclipse try:

  • Force the cleanup using SVN Tortoise
  • From terminal with command svn cleanup /folder_to_cleanup

  • Anyway, @khituras I recommend you to change from svn to git :P

    svn cleanup worked for me in a way that none of the other suggested interventions on this page did. Thanks!

    On MacOS I used "brew reinstall svn" followed by "svn cleanup /folder_to_cleanup". Worked great.

This is most likely your console svn version is different to your Eclipse "SVNKIT (Pure Java)" version, you can change Preferences=>Team=>SVN=>SVN interface=>Client using "JavaHL (JNI)"

My case is as below, using Java HL 1.7.10 is ok, but using SVNKIt v1.7.9 will have the problem

wuliang-Mac:src wwu$ svn --version
svn, version 1.7.10 (r1485443)
compiled Jul  9 2013, 12:55:03

  • Thanks for this feedback. I'm having trouble getting Eclipse to recognize the JavaHL SVN connector - am currently using the SVNKit connector. Going to troubleshoot that issue and if that turns out to be the problem, I'll come back and accept.

  • Had the same problem with Netbeans. Changing the Client from SvnKit to CLI solved the problem for me.

In my case, project -> team -> cleanup / refresh worked for one of the files but not the other. Simply copy the command that failed from svn console on eclipse and run it in console with "svn" prefix works for me. So the syntax is: 

svn commit -m "comment" -N /path/to/file

Try to execute from the terminal: 

svn cleanup

Team -> Refresh/Cleaunp from IDE didn't work for me.

  • This is the common case for 2020-06 (4.16.0). You have to use the terminal to do the cleanup.

I had hard time solving this issue and I finally figured out what happened.

If you use SVN add-on with Eclipse or IntelliJ IDEA and delete some files our of it (from system's file browser, then you will get this message as well.

The only way I was able to solve it in IDEA was to commit changes via external SVN tool, then reopened the IDE and checkout changes. After that I was able to commit with no such error.

  • Nothing new, check @wuLiang´s answer. You have used different versions of SVN clients.

For whomever is using SmartSVN (in MacOS) and Eclipse, if after clean up at Eclipse using the accepted answer is still not working, you may try to clean up at SmartSVN, top menu -> Modify -> Clean Up....

You have to close your Eclipse IDE or which ever IDE you are running your java project with. Then open terminal and type this:

svn cleanup /path/to/your/project/rootfolder

Reopen Eclipse IDE and try committing again, this should work!!!

Encounter this when server is upgrading svn version.

For Idea Intellij user, what we need to do is

  1. select the project root directory in the left project panel
  2. in the top menu, select VCS -> Subversion -> Cleanup

Now you should be able to checkin/out.

  • This answer would be ok if the question was for Intellij. However it is for Eclipse subversive plugin.

    @FLBKernel, i was led to this question when google searching this SVN error. So i thought it might save some other Intellij user some time in case google also take them here. Anyway~~
