No, you can delete (on the command line) directly in the repository by escaping each in the URL with \ or %20.

Deleting a directory with a space in it.
Hi, I've got a directory in subversion with a space in the name which I'd like to delete. This is what I've tried: svn rm http://subversion/src/Repo/Grad Training svn rm http://subversion/src/Repo/Grad Training svn rm http://subversion/src/Repo/Grad%20Training; svn rm http://subversion/src/Repo/Grad%20Training svn rm http://subversion/src/Repo/Grad\ Training svn rm http://subversion/src/Repo/Grad\ Training and I keep getting: svn: URL 'http://subversion/src/Repo/Grad%2520Training' does not exist svn: Your commit message was left in a temporary file: svn:'svn-commit.9.tmp' I've also tried checking out the parent directory, deleting the directory and committing the changes, but I get a permission error: error: you don't have enough permissions for this transaction: you can't remove Grad Training/ and from the Apache logs: [Tue Sep 20 16:28:00 2011] [error] [client 192.168.1.70] Could not MERGE resource /src/Repo/!svn/act/9f05c85e-f478-4f0e-8d08-d06b5c3d8781 into /src/Repo.
