Dominique Jean-Prost commented on SCM-409:
------------------------------------------
Just tested it. It works fine for me.
Please note that I only tested the checkout command.
> Windows path length limitations can be overcome by feeding an absolute path
> to SVN (checkout command)

> Key: SCM-409
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SCM-409
> Project: Maven SCM
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: maven-scm-provider-svn
> Affects Versions: 1.1
> Environment: Windows OS
> Reporter: Dominique Jean-Prost
> Assignee: Olivier Lamy
> Fix For: 1.1.1
>
>
> When calling Subversion with relative paths there is a limit of 255
> characters to the path length. If you call Subversion with an absolute path
> that no longer applies and you now have access to 32K chars. I have tried
> this myself and it does work. Try feeding SVN a path that is relative and is
> over 255 chars. It will not be able to complete the transaction. Now, try to
> the same path again only as an absolute path and it will successfully
> complete the transaction.
> This bug was originally fixed for the update command, but still remains for
> the checkout command. There may be other command that are affected by this
> bug.
> 1. cd c:\a\very\long\paht\under\windows\xp\or\windows\2000
> 2. mvn scm:checkout -DconnectionUrl=scm:svn:http://myUrlHere
> --> It says
> [INFO] Executing: cmd.exe /X /C "svn --non-interactive checkout
> http://myUrlHere checkout"
> [INFO] Working directory: c:\a\very\long\paht\under\windows\xp\or\windows\2000
> [ERROR] Provider message:
> [ERROR] The svn command failed.
> [ERROR] Command output:
> [ERROR] svn: Your .svn/tmp directory may be missing or corrupt; run 'svn
> cleanup' and try again
> svn: Can't open file 'checkout\blabla....svn-base': Le chemin d'accès
> spécifié est introuvable.
> 3. If I execute svn --non-interactive checkout http://myUrlHere
> c:\a\very\long\paht\under\windows\xp\or\windows\2000\checkout : it works.
