Well, I committed my Documents folder to a Subversion repository on my network storage device and dutifully checked it out onto my laptop again yesterday. Today, when I went to sync Quicken, I found that I couldn’t open the data file. This web site thankfully had the answer. Quicken uses resource forks on OS X (resource forks were a big thing pre-OS X, I didn’t think anything still used them). After running through the commands as shown on the site, I was more-or-less happily broke to the last penny again. While this wasn’t meant to be a subversion bashing, it reinforces my desire to move to a DVCS – specifically Bazaar. More on that in the future.
