Modified Subversion Binaries to work with “_svn” folders

Update: ver. 1.1.4 is now available below.

After dealing with this frustrating issue off and on for the last few months, and after a recent comment, I decided it was time do it right. I’ve stopped using TortoiseSVN’s tortoiseproc.exe (for this reason), even though it is conveniently built on a regular basis (in time with the rest of the TSVN releases) to support the “_svn” vs. “.svn” folders.

So, I’ve compiled the Subversion 1.1.3 binaries with support for “_svn” folders. Note, these are ONLY the executables(and needless to say, for Win32). You need to have a proper install of Subversion 1.1.3 before copying these files (place them in the same bin directory as the 1.1.3 binaries). These were renamed *-mod.exe, so there will be no conflict. I intend to continue to compile releases shortly after the major distributions, until we are fully converted to VS 2005 (where the original issue is no longer). Until then, with both svn.exe and svn-mod.exe in the path makes it easy to conditionally support different types of project builds from the command-line (usually with NAnt).
