            Bug ID: 230044
           Summary: FreeBSD subversion repository contains an invalid
                    filename for some filesystems - q-1.024.003.
           Product: Base System
           Version: CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: tests
          Assignee: testing at freebsd.org
          Reporter: jerker.back at gmail.com

Checking out FreeBSD subversion repository on Windows fails with
svn: E155000: 'q-1.024.003.' is not valid as filename in directory
'head/tools/test/sort/bigtest'

It is possible to trick subversion to pass this. In my old repository I have
both the invalid q-1.024.003. and a valid q-1.024.003 counterpart. I don't
remember how I did this, but I remember it was a challenge. I think the
filesystem allows the file, but the OS and tools rule it out as invalid. The
file itself seems to be empty, so possibly a typo?

I'm pretty sure I reported this error before as did others I think, I cannot
find any trace of it in the FreeBSD bug database though. Internet search also
gives several mentions of the bug.

Solution: Rename file from q-1.024.003. => q-1.024.003 (which seems logic)

cheers
