Dear all, I am running Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit (6.1, build 7601), also I should note, that I used IDE Intellij Idea 13.1.3 to commit changes ( Not sure, whether the IDE influences this issue in this case). I do not know how to get the generated command from Intellij, also I already commited the files and therefore can not reproduce the issue in exactly same way.
Next time I will face the same issue, I will try to provide you with the svn command. Hope this helps. Have a nice day With regards Milan From: Geoff Field <geoff_fi...@aapl.com.au> To: Stefan Sperling <s...@elego.de>, Cc: "milan_plan...@swissre.com" <milan_plan...@swissre.com>, "users@subversion.apache.org" <users@subversion.apache.org> Date: 16. 09. 2014 00:54 Subject: RE: svn command line client 1.8.8 - Error: file name or extension is too long > On Mon, Sep 15, 2014 at 09:38:29AM +1000, Geoff Field wrote: > > However, please note that Milan finally mannaged to commit > all the files by doing them in smaller batches.

However, from Milan's original post: "Then I tried to commit changes in chunks (I did not change any path or file name), which finally worked. I had 285 files to commit." Note that he also said: "This file in its path is far away from the longest name in project..." This implies that files with longer pathnames successfully committed. However, it's up to Milan to confirm or deny this. > There are references to absolute paths working around the > problem in the archives: > http://svn.haxx.se/users/archive-2005-02/1088.shtml > > There are also posts that seem to contradict this theory: > http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2004-10/1482.shtml > > I don't use windows so I can't verify any of this myself. Part of the problem is that the rules very much depend on which version of Windows is being used. Back in 2004/2005, XP was the bees' knees. (Mind you, I'm typing this on a machine that's still running XP.) Nowadays, things are somewhat different. The next OS produced by MS was a 64-bit one, with all sorts of rule (and, of course, API) changes. It would help if Milan told us more details, such as the exact platform (which Windows?) and the exact commands entered.
