For our build machines, we run VMware Workstation. We have source code checked out in a shared folder (shared from the host using VMware). In the builds we do svn operations like update etc.
This worked fine until updating to Workstation 7. Now we get errors like this:
svn: In directory 'E:\bitten\winxpbitten\bitten\j5-trunk\j5\Sites\Config'
svn: Error processing command 'delete-entry' in 'E:\bitten\winxpbitten\bitten\j5-trunk\j5\Sites\Config'
svn: Can't set file 'E:\bitten\winxpbitten\bitten\j5-trunk\j5\Sites\Config\.svn\prop-base\.gitignore.svn-base' read-write: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.
This seems to happen to any files starting with ., no matter how we access them.
Any ideas how to work around this? Having the files on a shared folder makes editing and managing them much easier so I'm reluctant to move them onto a local drive.
