The best way to introduce code into the mainline of Subversion is to
provide patches against the trunk/ directory in the subversion
repository and include a log message.
That said, I've reviewed the patch. My conclusion is that it only
solves part of the problem though: it solves the part where you have
to cooperate with Windows/Linux setups. It doesn't introduce specific
problems when working with new repositories, but what happens when you
have a Mac-only shop with a pre-existing repository?
Presumably in a setup like that, decomposed paths already exist in the
repository and the reverse problems appear. So, instead of solving the
problem, we're introducing a burden on a different set of users, but
it's the same burden...
Would there be a way to avoid that problem? (This is as much a
question to you as to others as it is a question to me...)
bye,
Erik.
