What case are the names in the repository? We had an issue with
authorization which came down to having a repository called Sandbox
which people would check out as sandbox or SandBox. This is all
running on windows via apache so it would all work on checkout - but
on the commit it would only allow SandBox because that's what I'd put
in the authz file!

So note that the actual respository name was different case to the
authz file, but as long as you had checkedout using the authz casing
you could commit!

Perhaps the issue is that that the checkout should be really be
stopped if the case is wrong?
