So it seems like the last visible commit is r1897 done 5 years ago. This is very bad for me, it makes code browser broken and it makes an impression like the project was inactive for 5 years....

I cleared the browser caches and observed it on various browsers, both logged-in to SourceForge and anyonymous. So it doesn't seem to be an issue with some revision remaining "sticky" in my cookies.

This was also mentioned in [#5238].

    I forgot to mention that the repositories work fine when accessed, e.g. this output is correct:

    $ svn info svn+ssh://kambi@svn.code.sf.net/p/castle-engine/code/trunk
    ...
    Revision: 12030
    Node Kind: directory
    Last Changed Author: kambi
    Last Changed Rev: 12030
    Last Changed Date: 2012-12-16 13:23:38 +0100 (Sun, 16 Dec 2012)
    
    $ svn info svn+ssh://kambi@svn.code.sf.net/p/pasdoc/code/
    ...
    Revision: 1328
    Node Kind: directory
    Last Changed Author: kambi
    Last Changed Rev: 1328
    Last Changed Date: 2012-12-10 06:39:44 +0100 (Mon, 10 Dec 2012)
    

    So it doesn't seem like a problem of SVN repository, only the code browser shows something wrong.

    Looks like a duplicate of [#4935] to me. Do you concur?

    Yes, it seems [#4935] observes the same behavior.

    I can also definitely confirm that the information changes (seemingly) randomly, that is: even without any commits to the repository, the code browser seems to switch from time to time to showing other revision. For example, my https://sourceforge.net/p/castle-engine/code/ shows now:

    branches    2008-01-20  herrmannek  [r2538] ...
    tags    2008-02-25  kambi   [r2665] ...
    trunk   2010-11-05  kambi   [r7081] ...
    

    So now the last commit shown in 7081. 3 days ago, when submitting this bugreport, it was showing 1897. The real latest commit is still 12030, so it's still wrong. No commits were made to the repository during that time.

    So I'm not sure whether the comment (made in [#4935]) that "[#4691] is probably the root cause of this." is right. In my case, information changes randomly, regardless of repository contents. And also, this is about SVN repository, where the ordering of commits is after all trivial (unlike git and such).

    I hope this helps you guys to solve the problem :) And BTW, happy new year and thousand thanks for all the hard work you do at SourceForge!
