Error on checking out Chrome V8 Wiki from Git Hub


I am using Tortoise SVN v1.9.5 to checkout Google Chrome V8 Wiki (trunk) content in my Windows Server 2016 machine from GitHub link of https://github.com/v8/v8.wiki.git and I am getting the following error:

Error: Failed to run the WC DB work queue associated with  
Error:  'D:\ChromeV8\wiki\trunk\images', work item 44 (file-install  
Error:  trunk/What-should-I-do-if-my-CL-broke-the-Node.js-integration-build?.md 1 0 1  
Error:  1)  
Error: Can't move 'D:\ChromeV8\wiki\.svn\tmp\svn-B67F3A8B' to  
Error:  'D:\ChromeV8\wiki\trunk\What-should-I-do-if-my-CL-broke-the-Node.js-integration-build?.md':  
Error:  The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.  

Any help to fix this issue or understand the cause of this error will be of great help.


Solution

  • I guess Windows doesn't support ? occurring in file names. Why do you want to clone the wiki? Can you use a non-Windows OS (e.g. a Linux virtual machine)?
