Referring to discussion(old discussion): https://jazz.net/forum/questions/52994/team-concert-filename-too-long-limitations
it suggests that in RTC, there is no file name or path name limitation in source control.
does that mean if it is in Windows system, other than the file name/path length subjected to Windows own limitation, RTC itself does not have any such limitation in source control for any OS?

Hi Don,

short answer: yes, RTC does not have any limitations.
All limitations in file name and path length come from the OS you install your client.
E.g. in windows system the limitation is - as I can remember - 256 chars.

Hope this helps,
Simon
