Hello all,

I've been using Turtoise SVN for a few years now with good succes. I've 
recently tried to check out a local copy of a repository into a One Drive 
folder and while this works I am getting some strange behavior that I can't 
figure out. Maybe someone here can explain what is happening...

So I can check out the repository just fine and the directory tree is 
created. Then if I right click on the repository I see the following 
context menu:



I notice a few things here:

   - The folder icon does not show the SVN status. If I check out in a non 
One Drive folder this works fine, but in the One Drive folder I don't see 
the overlays
   - The context menu does not seem to be recognizing the folder as a local 
working copy.
   - If I click on SVN Checkout... I get a warning that the folder is not 
empty but if I proceed with the checkout the folder is updated to the 
latest revision:



So I've done a little more digging and found that One Drive is only 
available as a 32 bit app. Given that I am running on Windows 10 x64 and 
that I have the 64 bit version of TurtoiseSVN installed (1.10) I thought 
this might be the issue. Tried installing the 32 bit version but that 
refuses to install. Noticed the suggestion to install the VC_redist.x86.exe 
file so I did, rebooted and still getting the same behavior. At a bit of a 
loss here on how to get this to work...

Reason I am doing this is that I have a number of projects that are not 
under version control, so I would like all my projects at least backed up 
to the cloud, but then some projects are under version control, so those 
create folders in my directory tree that are local working copies of the 
repository.

One possible solution here would be to create these repos elsewhere in my 
file system and then do an mklink to create a shortcut in my One Drive 
folder structure to these other folders, but I'll have to do this for all 
folders under revision control which will be a bit of a pain...

Looking for any feedback / suggestions you have to offer on how to get this 
to work. Thanks!
