Re: ! Some Characters in Path Cause Troubles (eg in Externals)

Okay, I just tried manually escaping the characters in the external
and it works. It’s not pretty though since it requires the user to
manually escape them.

VisualSVN, svn.exe, etc. all accept non-alpha characters for
importing, setting properties, and checkouts, without the user
manually escaping. Even TSVN accepts non-alpha characters in several
places. It seems that the externals are one of the only places that
are not automatically escaped by the program. (It kind of reminds me
of the old SQL-Injection vulnerability thing, where the program is not
escaping special characters on its own.)

Fortunately it should be simple enough to fix: just escape the
external paths before sending them. :)
