SVN treats everything internally as a URL. %20 is the URL-encoding
for a space. It is a bug that it would show a file as different
because of this but otherwise, yes it is true that this internal
aspect of SVN does bleed into the UI in some places. I think this bug
is already in the issue tracker, but I do not have time to look at the
moment.

Your second problem was most likely running into SVN limitations. In
the current version you have to be careful when you are refactoring
due to some limitations in SVN. For example, SVN does not allow you
to move something twice without committing in between the moves.
Also, if you move something and want to move it back, SVN expects you
to revert it, not move it again.

The next version of SVN has made great improvements in this area and I
am hoping these issues will all disappear when that becomes the
version of record.
