I use the Subversion repository where someone copied the file name to the same file name using a different case (at least I'm sure this is what happened). Sort of:
svn copy FILENAME.xml filename.xml
This person neglected, however, to be removed FILENAME.xmlfrom the repository (I work in a team of mostly non-developers, so it is unlikely that they understood this). Now there is a situation where file names (in upper and lower case) exist in the repository.
This will not be a problem, except that I use a Mac for the case-insensitive file system: when updating my working copy, the uppercase version is overwritten in lowercase, I get warnings that my working copy is incomplete and I cannot force exclamation signs go away. I really don't use this particular repository, except to check out a couple of things sometimes, and I'm not very familiar with Subversion.
What I want to do is completely remove the name all-caps in favor of the lowercase name. I cannot do this because when I try to execute a svn deletefile, it deletes the line version.
