Re: locale issues on mac os X

Hi Ryan,

Thanks a lot for this hint. I've installed the subversion client on
macports with
sudo port install subversion +unicode_path
as you suggested.

It works properly now.

There was still one exception where it did not seem to work, but I've
renamed that file so it does not contain the "special" characters anymore.

The exception was:
"Functional Analysis/GPO - grille critères d'évaluation.xls"

Thanks a lot for the answer, it solved my issues.

I also found the following references via your answer:

http://groups.google.com/group/versions/browse_thread/thread/0bb7c64b800715e1/c7fc43fa25ce7808?lnk=raot

http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2007-07/0476.shtml
http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr15/tr15-29.html

For completeness I would like to add that I am using my subversion
client on a Mac OS Extended Case sensitive, Journaled filesystem.

Kind regards,
Bart De Gruyter
