#17813: BUG: subversion cannot deal with composed/decomposed unicode difference on OSX --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: Philip@… | Owner: dluke@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.7.0 Keywords: unicode | Port: subversion --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Comment(by dluke@…): Isn't the patch solution 1 from http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/notes/unicode-composition-for- filenames ? {{{ Solution (1) has a very strong CON: it will break all pre-existing MacOSX-only workshops. Consider a client which starts sending NFC encoded paths in an environment where all paths have been NFD encoded until that time - without proper support in the server. This would result in commits with NFC encoded paths to files for which the path in the repository is NFD encoded: breakage. }}} I would rather use a patch that has been accepted to svn trunk (or if there is going to be a release shortly to fix this, then wait for that). If neither option is appearing soon, perhaps including it in a variant may be reasonable (although not really ideal). -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/17813#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
