I just ran across an older repository in my SVN database that has a couple of files that have an invalid filename. The filename as seen within TortoiseSVN as well as viewing through a browser is '/'. If I click on the file while using the broswer, it opens up and I can see the ascii text within and it actually c code. If I try to rename using TortoiseSVN I get the following error: "Subversion reported an error: File not found: transaction 'xxxx-xx', path 'trunk/directory/subdir1/subdir1a/file' (where file is the filename I want to change to). If I try to check out using the windows command prompt I get the following once the bad filename is encountered: "svn: E155000: Path 'C:\local-repo\repo-name\trunk\directory\sub-dir1\sub-dir1a\\' is not in the working copy". Note the double '/' at the end with the final '/' being the filename encountered within the svn database.
How can I correct this issue without causing harm to this or any other repo within the database? I was afraid to try to delete the file for fear of doing irreparable harm (due to the nature of '/' and what it represents on the Linux host). Any ideas are greatly appreciated. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TortoiseSVN" group.
