RE: Re: Subversion checkout of cvs2svn failing

I tried both these commands on Windows and they both fail:

    svn co --username=3Dguest --password=3D"" http://cvs2svn.tigri=E2=80=8B=
s.org/svn/cvs2svn/tr=E2=80=8Bunk cvs2svn-trunk
    git clone https://github.com/m=E2=80=8Bhagger/cvs2svn

The reason is that the characters <>:"/\|?* and ASCII controls (codes 0 to =
31) are not allowed in Windows filenames. Among the test files there are at=
 least two that contain double quotes in the filename (and I think that=E2=
=80=99s all: git checkout complained about these 2 - so didn=E2=80=99t stop=
 at the 1st error - and nothing else). Note that when unpacking the release=
 *.tar.gz the tool I used (StuffIt Expander) replaced double quotes with un=
derscores.
