Re: [OS X] Preserving .svn directories in nibs; restoring nuked .svn directories

Well, I did not say that it is a good solution but it works for me.
Clearly one should not do a
cvs up in such a directory ;-)
The only tool which did not like this so far was eclipse.
And why on earth shouldn't I be allowed to call my directory whatever I
want to? As long as I am not using CVS this should be fine and indeed
it is working for me.

For me it's a better solution than moving .svn directories around.
