TortoiseSVN makes a case-insensitive test for the substring
"/tags/" anywhere in the URL you are committing. It can get
confused if, for example, the host name of the repository
included this text. I get your message when I use a test
repository accessed as file:///C:/.../tags/temp

I'm not sure whether including the URL of the repository, as well
as the path within it, in the check is correct behaviour or a
mistake.
