I'm trying to update a plugin through SVN, but it consistently fails:
C:\svn\abcd>svn ci -m "tagging version 2.0"
Authentication realm: <http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org:80> Use your WordPress.org login
Password for 'abcde': *******
Adding tags\2.0
svn: E195023: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: E195023: Changing directory 'C:\svn\abcd\tags\2.0' is forbidden by the server
svn: E175013: Access to '/!svn/ver/350848/abcd/tags' forbidden
I'm sure the password is correct (otherwise I'd get a different type of error). Reading in the forums, it seems this happens when SVN is down. How do I know if this is so?
NB: While at it, WordPress devs really need to work a bit on the plugin development process (including an interactive way to see status).
Cheers,
Chris.
