I use Subversion as my CVS and get an error while loading a web project with
the .svn folder in it.  I know it's kind of been beaten to death, but is
there any workaround for this?

Hi Jame,

For the issues about using Subversion, I suggest you can also raise this
problem on IRC at irc.freenode.net, channel #svn and check their FAQ:
http://subversion.tigris.org/project_faq.html

Thanks for your understanding!

Best regards,

I don't see how the subversion devs could change visual studio so that it can handle a legit folder name correctly. Or am I missing something here?

The current workaround is for TortoiseSVN to have a special build that
uses "_svn" instead of ".svn".  Look for the following on their web
page:

"Version 1.0.6.1200 for NT4/Win2k/XP (special version! We provide NO
support for this!) uses _svn folders instead of .svn to work around
the VS.NET bug with web projects. If you don't use web projects then
please use the official version. Note: working copies created by this
version are incompatible with other Subversion clients!"

Note. This is not a bug in ASP.NET as the TSVN FAQ claims.  It's a
security fix in IIS that is not ever likely to be changed.  See
