Hi,

I = pulled a silly mistake just now... I accidentally let my windows = backslash enter into an http URL during an SVN copy = operation.

copy --parents = "C:\Project_files\sandbox\bar.c" "http://svr/sandbox/A\B/bar1.c" = -m "bad commit"

It successfully = committed.

svn update now returns the = following:

svn: E155000: 'A\B' is not a valid = filename in directory 'C:\Project_files\sandbox\'

First, I assume there should be a check to = prevent this invalid character for URLs. Second, how do I undo my = error?

I'm on SVN 1.8.5 and the backslash = should give me away as a windows user (Win7 - 64bit).

Thanks for the = help,

Dan
