We are still working in TFS 2005 and I need to be able to branch a project from 
a particular changeset. The only problem is we have some files in our projects 
with guids in the names  and because of this TFS keeps throwing me this error:

 

TF10176: The path for 'project path' exceeded the limit of 248 characters for a 
directory, or 260 for a directory and file name.

 

Then it lists all of the offending files with their paths.

 

Because of this, the attempt to branch into a new empty TFS project fails. It 
seems ironic that developers can check these files in but I can't really do 
anything in terms of a branch with them.  Does anybody know of a way to get 
around this ? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
