Hi,
in all of a sudden Altium SVN version control started showing refreshing (the grey circle in the attached screenshot) and remaining stuck in that mode so I cannot do any commits. I can use 100% of Altium but cannot add or do any commits.
What is weird is that it shows the same for all projects open in the project group including some projects/files that I have not open in weeks (they are just still part of the same project group when I open Altium). It also does that regardless of the project group I open.
I tried everything including restarting Altium and the PC. After restarting it seems to work for a bit but either after a while or after the first commit it goes back to the status mentioned above.
Any suggestions to fix?
Thank you

What I found for SVN, the fix is usually not on the client, but on the server side.
Most of the commit and update related problem was Linux file access rights related. Which is not about the SVN user, but the "user that runs the SVN server", they had to add 777 or smt like that to the folders.

You should post altium questions here: https://www.eevblog.com/forum/altium/ (https://www.eevblog.com/forum/altium/)
ask a mod to move it.

On Windows it'll be TortoiseSVN or something like that, which, I forget if that's the be-all-end-all or if it uses a related thing as a backend? But yeah, that'd be the "server" end.
Try clean / repair or whatever it's called? Also, what's the Storage Manager panel say, if anything?

Thank you all.
I could not find a repair option but after doing a Windows update it started working again.
