I came across one such scenario a few weeks ago. If in your working
copy, you rename the file to just different case. Then you can right
click that single file and choose Add. After that, a commit will add
the wrongly named file. If you instead do an Add or Commit on the
directory instead of file, TSVN automatically renames the file. It's
left like this so you can still add them if you wish. If you'd rather
not allow this, then I suggest going with the pre-commit
check-case-insensitive.py mentioned in an earlier e-mail. Also suggest
to your users to try and do commits on the directory, my problem was
the person kept wanting to do things per file.
