in your package.xml check what is the picklist value , i believe it has been changed and some extra characters are added

Like "/" to "%2F" and "," to "%2C"

Yes, There are some special character liek this
RecordType.DeveloperName = &apos;Account&apos;,RecordType.DeveloperName=&apos;Legal_Entity&apos;

How can I replace this in metadata file.

Thanks,

Yeah thats kind of a manual effort I believe, find and replace with correct API name.

I used that using notepad++ if you know better tool you can use that.

So, is the correct answer to escape the characters in package.xml or leave them unescaped?  I'm having a world of problems with profiles with periods and parenthesis.  Don't ask me what they were named that way.

The Selected Answer Here is Fantasic.

The Other potential answer which refer to "/" to "%2F" and "," to "%2C", also seen elsewhere in the internet are a load of rubbish.
This may have once been an issue, but the escaped characters within the.object file are perfectly fine, and should not be adjusted

If you were to put them into SF via the GUI via SETUP, then salesforce would expect the unescaped version.
