Larry North commented on SCM-409:
---------------------------------

I'm getting a similar error when using  
org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-scm-plugin:1.1.1-SNAPSHOT.  When I execute

mvn scm:checkout -DconnectionUrl=scm:svn:https:MY REPO URL -Dusername=lnorth 
-Dpassword=*****

the output shows:

[INFO] Executing: cmd.exe /X /C "svn --username lnorth --password ***** 
--non-interactive checkout https:MY REPO URL "C:\Program 
Files\maestro-1.6.2\project-server\apps\continuum\webapp\WEB-INF\working-directory\26\target\checkout""

>    Affects Versions: 1.1
>         Environment: Windows OS

> When calling Subversion with relative paths there is a limit of 255 
> characters to the path length. If you call Subversion with an absolute path 
> that no longer applies and you now have access to 32K chars. I have tried 
> this myself and it does work. Try feeding SVN a path that is relative and is 
> over 255 chars. It will not be able to complete the transaction. Now, try to 
> the same path again only as an absolute path and it will successfully 
> complete the transaction.
> This bug was originally fixed for the update command, but still remains for 
> the checkout command. There may be other command that are affected by this 
> bug.
> 1. cd c:\a\very\long\paht\under\windows\xp\or\windows\2000
> 2. mvn scm:checkout -DconnectionUrl=scm:svn:http://myUrlHere

> [INFO] Executing: cmd.exe /X /C "svn --non-interactive checkout
