We use Tortoise SVN clients running under Win XP, and everything works well. Unfortunately I am not the greatest fan of such GUI tools and prefer comand line tools whenever available. I have a cygwin installation (last updated four weeks ago) on my PC, and so I tried the cygwin svn. Commands like 'svn stat' work properly until a file with german umlauts in the filename is encountered. The command then quits with the following error message: svn: Can't convert string from native encoding to 'UTF-8' svn: Ausgangskan?\228le.png What can I do to make it work? Thanks a lot for any advice. Sven Mit freundlichen Grüßen Dipl. Inform.
