      We have a cvs project that contains an "&" sign in a filename, which works for the most part (still not a good idea).

      However, the changelog.xml that is generated contains the plain filename which makes the xml invalid:

      <file>
      <name>Architektur&DesignV1.8.1.doc</name>
      <fullName>/Architektur&DesignV1.8.1.doc</fullName>
      <revision>1.3</revision>
      <dead />
      </file>

      the resulting error in catalina.out is

      Caused by: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: The reference to entity "DesignV1.8.1.doc" must end with the ';' delimiter.

          changelog-history plugin simply copies these files, it does not create them.. reassigning to core.

          I have to do some more tests, maybe this is an issue in the cvs plugin.

          it turns out that the problem comes from the cvs plugin which writes xml-files directly.
