Jack,

Windows doesn't support form() I can't actually tell you why something
appears to need fork, but honestly don't use Windows for deployment, and
don't use local SVN. In 2011 you'd be hard pressed to find a good reason not
to use Gitorious, or Github, or <insert any number of providers here>, I'll
be the first to admit that the copy strategy isn't perfect.

Capistrano is intentionally opinionated, which enables us to help most
people most of the time, but people using Windows are unlucky because it is
so badly optimized for development, and especially people using Windows with
local SVN are double out of luck, given how opinionated Cap is, you're going
to need to change something in your setup, or do a lot more reading to find
some workarounds.

However, in this case, it sounds like `tar` is doing something wrong, like
maybe you need cygwin or something… but I haven't touched a Windows machine
in years.
