    I delved into the test dirs and did a bunch of "svn up -N"s to get all the files, and I can now run svn update with no errors.

    You need to delete your local copy and re-'svn co' ambition. Sorry, this was my fault.

    Moved to git!

    $ git clone git://errtheblog.com/git/ambition

    Thank you for moving Ambition to a version control system that has intelligence and aids in development, instead of being simply a patch database. I've been using git for about a year now and can't say enough good things about it.
