svn : problems with files starting with '-'
Hi,
I'm using subversion version 1.6.12 in FreeBSD and I'm having some
difficulties with files that start with '-':
cm% svn rename -MediacatController.php MediacatController.php
svn: invalid option character: M
Type 'svn help' for usage.
cm% svn rename %2DMediacatController.php MediacatController.php
svn: '%2DMediacatController.php' is not under version control
cm% svn rename '-MediacatController.php' MediacatController.php
svn: invalid option character: M
Type 'svn help' for usage.
Does anyone know a quick workaround for this?
Regards,
João Pinheiro

Another option:
svn rename -- -MediacatController.php MediacatController.php
(which is a bit easier for scripting)

The usual UNIX "trick" would be:
svn rename ./-MediacatController.php MediacatController.php
Does this not work for you?
