Valid UTF-8 data followed by invalid UTF-8 sequence

hi,

i got the message from svn (Version 1.5.2 (r32768))

svn: Auf gültige UTF-8 Daten
(hex:)
folgte eine ungültige UTF-8 Sequenz
(hex: c3 63 76 73)

doing a checkout into my source tree. i have converted
a cvs repository into a svn dump and loaded it into my production svn repository.

after the message and searching in the web i was a litte in ***panic***, maybe i have corrupted my svn repository.

i corrected some log messages, nothing helps. after reading
the message from karl fogl http://cia.vc/stats/author/kfogel?s_message=0
i saw a subdirectory containing a non utf8 character in the directory name. this was the solution of my problem, i have renamed it and svn checkout worked fine.

the interesting thing was, that my checkout did not affect this directory, because it was not unter cvs control and i don't want it do be controlled by svn.

i think, that svn co reads the hole directory tree before doing the checkout.

maybe this message helps other people in the mail group.

best regards

christian
