> I don't think this is a high priority bug - I'm not sure it is worth fixing at all.  
> But it just tripped me up so I thought I'd enter it.
> The problem is that MacOS X's case insensitive filesystem interacts 
> strangely with unix.  i.e. ThisDir and thisdir are the same directory, but 
> most comparisons will treat them as different and so may become 
> confused.  This is not just a subversion problem - many shells have the 
> same issue.
