Description

While trying update i get error:

% hg update --repository Q:\Ryzom --verbose --rev default
[Error 123] The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect: 'Q:\\Ryzom\\ryzom_assets/Stuff/Fyros/Decors/Constructions/Object ? classer'
[command interrupted Tue Oct 19 20:44:58 2010]

In my hdd is:
Q:\Ryzom\ryzom_assets\Stuff\Fyros\Decors\Constructions\Object à classer

Is any way to get rid of this?

Sorry, but we can't do anything about this, you just need to move your "ryzom_assets" outside of Q:\Ryzom

If you want to report a bug go to Hg official site :)

I'd like to note on this that the build pipeline also does not properly handle assets with strange characters, especially if you're running under an alternative codepage. It should be best, for the repackaging of the assets that sfb is looking into, to replace all non-ascii filenames, and to normalize all directory names to lower-case for proper casing compatibility in case the build would be ran under linux.

Thank you for answering.
