title: Repair corrupted SVN repository
body: <p>I am using svnX (0.9.13) on Mac OS X Lion (10.7.2 11C74) and have seem to have, what I believe, is a corrupted SVN repository. I have searched the site for similar questions and have <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6130/repair-svn-checksum/2766697">found</a> a <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7571805/recovering-from-a-separate-now-corrupt-svn-repository">couple</a>, yet none describe how to recover when you cannot complete a <strong>checkout</strong> from the repository. I do not have an up to date working directory either.</p>
  
  <p>The specific error is:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>svn: Checksum mismatch while reading representation:<br>
    expected: [hash]<br>
    actual: [different hash]<br></p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>If the alert is dismissed (the only option), the checkout will continue until the end. On first glance, most of the files seem to be there, but when I run the application, it is clear there is a mishmash of versions. The repository lives on a USB flash drive, which could be a source of corruption. I am the only user who access these files and they have not been touched for over a week and were in a working state.</p>
  
  <p>Any suggestions on how to proceed would be appreciated.</p>
