Someone MUST have hit this issue. Haven't had this particular issue but I wonder if AnkhSVN (Visual Studio plugin for SVN) helps filter this out. I've only ever used VS with AnkhSVN installed, so maybe that's why I don't see it? ----------------------------------------------------------------- I've used subversion and Visual Studio 2003, 2005 and 2008 for quite a while and never ran into this problem. Do the .svn folders have the Hidden attribute? Do you show hidden files in explorer? It's the only possibility I can think of that would yield the results you describe. I even ran a search as you suggest an it didn't look in the .svn folder. I do not show hidden files and my .svn folders have the hidden attribute set. ##################################################################################### Attention: The information contained in this message and or attachments is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
