Illegal characters in path. when include content tree for serialization

[ramnkl]

We are planning to use unicorn to setup the new instance after serialize all the items from sitecore from dev env. It was working fine without content tree. When we include the content tree we are getting the below issue. Is there a way to access the log info so that we would find out exactly which items throwing exception.

Ok, give this assembly a shot: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2kWVEe9WZ4cR0d1UEFUTFdwWlk/view?usp=sharing

SitecoreUnicorn/Rainbow@f5ed0b6 fixes the invalid chars issue, and SitecoreUnicorn/Rainbow@6d0869e fixes the error messaging not including the filename in some cases

[kamsar]

If that works, this fix will be in the next RC release.

[ramnkl]

Thanks a lot Kamsar for Quick turn around. It worked for me. Please update us once it is available in the Next RC.
We are planning to replace the TDS, mainly for build automation and also planning to build a code generate tool with unicorn for Glass mapper.

[kamsar]

The next RC is out, which should fix this. Let me know how it goes.

[kamsar]

I'm going to assume this is fixed; reopen if not.
