I moved (most of) the cocoa-related contribs into that new cocoa-ide directory, as you see. It is also an svn external, so you'll need to fix it up be doing the following:

$ cd ccl
$ scripts/svn-switch contrib/cocoa-ide

Or, equivalently
$ cd contrib/cocoa-ide
$ svn switch --relocate http://svn.clozure.com svn+ssh://svn.clozure.com/usr/local

That will tell svn to use ssh (and your keys) rather than http, and your commit should succeed.

Feel free to send private mail if you need more help sorting this out.
