in windows server 2012 - is it possible to use File Server Resource Manager to screen folders by name?
Solution 1:
File Screens won't do what you're looking for, unfortunately. They apply to files only. You can create a File Screen with the name .svn and it will prevent users from creating files named .svn but folders with that name can still be created.
(This was my initial thought but, to be sure, I just tested it under Windows Server 2012 R2.)
