[MonoDevelop] Bug report for MonoDevelop: some special characters in project path generates problematic include paths and hint paths in project file

[mayerwin]

I am aware of Bugzilla but I prefer not to disclose my email address publicly
(I hope Nabble offers more privacy) due to spam concerns.

*Platform*: Windows
*Version*: MonoDevelop 3.0.4.7, but also the master 3.0.5 apparently.
*Description*: Having a project folder path containing some special
characters, such as "(" and ")" (probably others too), causes include paths
to be rewritten (if originally from a Visual Studio project) with a big
depth till the folder that contain the special characters. Example:

-    <Compile Include="Properties\AssemblyInfo.cs" />
+    <Compile Include="..\..\..\..\..\..\Hello
%28A+B%29\framework\dev\parent\solutionfolder\testproject\Properties\AssemblyInfo.cs"
/>

To reproduce, just create a project which parent folder path contains "(" or
")".

When opening the project on another computer the paths do not match anymore
and files cannot be found.
