directory names containing spaces

Hi,
 
I wasn't able to find something about file and folder names containing
spaces in the issue list but maybe this already has been discussed or I just
missed it in the docs so just the question - are there known issues related
to files or folders named in such a way? If not I could post a list with a
couple of related problems. I just totally wrecked my repository this
morning just by choosing a "wrong" name for a project folder and until I
realized I'm actually having a problem about everyone had enough time to
screw it up a bit further (by simply commiting) until nothing was left to
destroy... If there actually is material covering this could you please
point me in the right direction?
 
Thanx
momo

I don't know what went wrong for you.  I have folders with spaces in 
them (more than one), and I also have names with spaces *and* non-ASCII 
characters.

Please describe what went wrong for you, with a reproduction recipe. 
That will help the developers find and possibly correct the problem.

Bye !
François
