Hi Guys, great website here! I just expirenced some problems adding my svn server as entlistment because the page does not accept my password. I use some other characters than a-z/A-Z/0-9 and _

Could you please allow some more special characters?

The best option here is to find a public repository that doesn't require a username and password. Most open source repositories have anon public repositories that anyone can access, does yours not?

no, it's a paid account from cvs dude, but a switch to an open repository would make sence in order to get other people involved.

I think we can make the change.

I can't find any specification for what is allowed in a Subversion password. Can you give me some hints about what additional characters you need? Is !@#$%^&*+=<>?:;|(){}[] enough?

hi robin, i googled a bit and didn't find any specs about svn or cvs passwords .. i think it can be everything except control characters, even utf8 characters .. the password would be compared byte by byte ..

but for cutting things short, the characters you've added are enough for me! thank you very much

I've deployed the changes. Let me know if you are still unable to submit your repository.

Thanks, Robin
