Hi Robin,

when transferring files from workspace to workspace In the step we specify at "Files to Transfer" all with **
all files and folders do get transferred.
Apart from ".svn"
other hidden files e.g. ".settings" are being transferred
Before this was not a prolem now we need to access the .svn directory in a later stage
  
Not sure if this actually a bug it seems like this could be the cause.: https://ant.apache.org/manual/Tasks/defaultexcludes.html

Still we would need some kind of workaround at the least.
Thanks in advance ,
Julian
