After further thought, I would expect this to be case sensitive even
on Windows. Do you have both logotext.jpg and logoText.jpg in the
entries file? The command 'svn log path/to/file' does not require the
file to exist, all that is necessary for the appropriate entry to be
present in the entries file, and that should be case sensitive.
