          Description

          If i have a prepended semicolon in my scm (Subversion) password, for example ";password" Continuum generates a faulty commandline for svn checkout.
          Before i used 1.1-alpha-2 with success. So i guess the handling of form input data has changed in 1.1-beta-1.
          I had no time to do further tests, but i guess there are problems with other special chars too.

              A little addition: The initial download of the pom.xml of my Maven2 project works fine using the same credentials.
              But when triggering a build the checkout fails with a faulty commandline. Svn complains about missing argument --password.

              Today i had some time digging into the sources and i figured out that the problem is not Continuum related but caused
              by a bug in the maven-scm-provider-svnexe. It does not properly quote passwords used on the commandline.
              I created a JIRA issue for it here: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SCM-334 and attached a patch to fix it.
              Continuum should upgrade to a new mvn-scm-provider-svnexe version as soon as a new release with the fix is available.

              I don't think you can connect to your svn from the command line with a pretented semicolon, right?

              I am not sure, but need to test this by setting up a user with such a password.

              IMHO this works : svn up --username test --password ';password'
              This should be fixed with last p-u 1.5.1. I have tested it locally on a cygwin need to do more tests on a real unix .

              So basically, as Jan Lisse noted, this should be ideally fixed in Maven-SCM
