Re: Subversion Exception in 1.7.1/2

4073 says this is supposed to have been fixed. I'm now on 1.7.5 and still
have the same issue.

I can't use a relative path cos that is not where the libray is. I need
absolute because some apps (viz VS 2010) require absolute paths for library
references.

I have to put the libraries on the C drive so that they can be accessed by
any user without them having to change the VS settings.

Daft thing is, it does actually check out the external library - I just get
a MS exception report. I then have to do a cleanup and on subsequent
updates I don't get the exception.

If this is not fixed then every user has to edit user specific VS settings
whenever my project is checked out by them. The settings are then wrong for
everybody else when it gets checked back in!
