SWITCH changes URL case, causing failure

G'Day Guys,

I'm having an issue with version 1.6.16 of tortoise when attempting to
perform a SWITCH.

Switch generates the following message:

Command: [LocalHDD]\RELEASES\3.12.2\3.12.2.Release\Content to
[InhouseSVNServer]/releases/3.12.2/3.12.2.release/Content, Revision HEAD

Error: Target path does not exist

The parent folders, 'RELEASES' and '3.12.2' and '3.12.2.Release' on my
local HDD, were each checked out as 'Immediate children, including
folders' - this allows me to see any new projects that have been added
without the need to transfer all the files I don't need across our WAN.

The 'Content' folder is very large, almost 1GB, and is replicated in the
many branches due to each branch having their own various differences.

So to save time and network activity, I check out the 'Content' folder
once and copy into each of my active branches, then perform a SWITCH to
point to the correct SVN branch.

The SWITCH is occurring FROM:

[Inhouse SVN Server]/releases/3.12.2/3.12.2.work/Content

TO:

[Inhouse SVN Server]/releases/3.12.2/3.12.2.Release/Content

I don't know if this is related, but I had originally typed in the new
path using a lower case 'r' for 'release', but I have since removed the
'Content' folder from my local HDD and updated the parent folder again
to recreate the empty 'Content' folder, then copying in the 'Content'
folder from the 'work' branch again but it is still failing because the
URL the switch is using has been somehow changed from '3.12.2.Release'
to '3.12.2.release' which cannot be found.

Your suggestions would be most appreciated, as I mentioned this
'Content' folder is quite large, and using SWITCH this way saves many
hours when needing to work on multiple concurrent branches.
