Hi! This problem is so strange I did not even know what to search this forum for, so if there's a thread please point me to.
I have set up a filter for a robust copy. It says *.* with an additional rule "NOT Name = .svn" and it works for all files inside an .svn folder, except for the "README.txt"! Here's the log that shows that all other files have been correctly filtered:
if you filter just on "name" then readme.txt clearly passes through "not .svn". But if you filter the same rule on "path" or "full name" column then it should work as you wish
btw *.* will not copy files without extension, be warned! Use "*" instead for all files

That was of course exactly what I wanted to do...did not know I can set the path or full name to be taken into account. Well, one day I'll get used to assuming that in x² anything is possible

Is that the reason why "\\Dev\html\.svn\entries" was filtered? Because that is what I was irritated by, I thought it is the folder .svn that would cause the filtering...thanks for making that clear!
