Can't delete files in version control

I have recently got my first project ready for review, and so committed and built a version ready. It worked okay, but I noticed there were quite a few image files added that I had previously deleted - this was my error as I had not been syncing delete via sftp. When I deleted these though from the server I found that any subsequent commit would still include them. In addition, trying to sort this out I accidentally uploaded a lot of files to my img folder - I have since deleted, but any svn action seems to still include these files - and I get errors every time now that my folder is too big, so now I cannot submit a new build without error. I have tried just committing new versions, and also tried checking out an old version, but am not allowed due to the file-size limit. I'm wondering if there is anything else I can do, save from moving my (correct) files to a new project?

I though I answet that I guess not because I don't see my reply :(

So make sure you sync can delete images or ftip manually and delete them.
Go back control panel and press commit - that should delete the files from svn. But files must be in img/ folder (new and deleted) - if they not some manual intervention may be required from admins.

Thanks for the info :)

The files are deleted from server, but they are still there in the logs everytime I commit, and I get

Code: Select all

********** ERROR ***********
** HAL says: more than 15 Mo of images on the mainsite. Images will not be overwritten on the gameserver. Please check your img folder, Dave.
I accidentally added some large number of files (synced my main game folder to /img) so perhaps this excessive amount of content is causing issues.
