           Summary: TortoiseSVN does not run under Wine
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.5.
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wineserver
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: mslinn at mslinn.com


I note that Winscp (winscp.org) is able to display TortoiseSVN menus in the
local file window when running under Windows, but not when running under wine. 
Here is how I invoke winscp under wine:

WINEDEBUG=fixme-all wine "c:/program files/winscp/winscp"

Background:
WinSCP is a very nice GUI front end for Subversion (svn).  You can read about
it and download it here: http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/

TortoiseSVN should not be run across a network when the Icon Overlays feature
is enabled.

However, TortoiseSVN's icon overlay feature is one of the program's major
assets.

I want to use Cygwin's xterm to connect to the samba server that holds the svn
checkout directory and use Wine to run TortoiseSVN locally on that server.  The
user would be presented with a nice visual representation of the state of their
checked out Subversion project, and performance would be good.

On Windows, TortoiseSVN can display its icons in any file chooser window, and
in Windows Explorer.  I have also found that WinSCP's explorer view will show
icons for the local machine.

I would prefer not to have to run WinSCP in order to view TortoiseSVN icons. 
Perhaps a tiny Win32 program that merely shows a file dialog would be
sufficient to run in an xterm, if Wine would support whatever system calls
TortoiseSVN makes.

For me, and many other programmers and IT personnel who work in a mixed
Windows/Linux environment, Wine would be much more useful if there was a way to
run it under Wine.  Might it be possible to extend winefile with whatever it
currently lacks in order to allow TortoiseSVN to run?
