how to interrupt a 'svn co' ? ctrl-C or ctrl-D don't work.

Hello,

I sometimes want to interrupt a 'make co' (when bandwith is required for 
something else for instance).
I have tried ctrl-C or ctrl-D: it does not work.

Have you got an idea or a tip ? I didn't find it in the documentation.

Thanks.

  Ronan

I'd like to undo this distinction :-).

We chose to use Neon.  No one forced us to.  This is a bug in SVN.  It
may be that our *fix* is to patch Neon (I assume Joe Orton would
welcome such a patch), but that's an implementation detail.

If the bug were truly due to circumstances beyond Subversion's
control, such as the operating system failing to deliver signals
reliably, that would be different.  This isn't like that.

Ronan Meneu, my earlier response was misleading:

I forgot that we had rewritten checkouts and updates to pipe all the
data in one stream.  So the uninterruptable circumstances are not
exceptional, unfortunately.

This is a known bug in neon, not svn.  Read the last three comments in 
issue 1709:

You mean 'svn co'?

Are there very large files in your checkout?  Interrupting 'svn co'
should work, but has a few exceptional circumstances that will delay
the response.  That could be the problem.

By the way, you don't say the version of Subversion, or what operating
system you are on, or the access method you used (svn://, http://, or
file://), or anything about the data.  For guidance on submitting bug
reports, please see:

Thanks,
