Re: [Quantlib-dev] svn commit succeeds on server, fails locally

[eric e. <eri...@gm...>]

Hi All,

I worked out the problem, I had some directories named "C++" and
commits to these directories caused a post-commit hook on the SF
server (svnnotify) to fail, presumably because the script doesn't like
the + character.  I will rename the directories today.

Regards,
Eric
