Hi Sean,
That path seems to be a bit weird. What system is this on? If it's
Windows, I believe the correct syntax for a file:// locator is:
file:///C:/SVN/repository/path/trunk
Where obviously C: is your drive letter, SVN is the first folder in
the path, and all \ converted to /.
If it's UNIX or Linux, paths don't have \ characters so it should all be /:
file:///svn/repository/path/trunk
Where svn is the first folder in the path.
I could be wrong, however as our SVN server is UNIX-based and I've
never used SVN on Windows.
