I'm suffering from this too, working with Russian file names. We have just 2 accented letters in the alphabet though.
This problem is due to forced Unicode normalization by Mac OS HFS+ filesystem. In particular, it uses NFD normalization rule. Most subversion clients doesn't take this into account. There is no agreed on solution to this problem as yet in subversion developer community. Various options are discussed. See the links below. Anyway, there is a patch for MacPorts version of subversion. It isn't installed by default, you have to ask for the patch as a 'variant'. The command to install is: $ sudo port install subversion +unicode_path Versions developers could apply this patch to their internal subversion libs. But this is not all so simple, because this could possibly complicate things for people using Mac-only repositories (with Mac-only clients, to be exact) with problem characters in file names. If anyone wants more information, here are the links I've researched today: http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/notes/unicode-composition-for-filenames http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2007-07/0476.shtml http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr15/tr15-29.html Regards, Andrew --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Versions" group.
