Keep only one copy of each unique file in the repository

It seems that if I add two files that have the same cryptographic hash
(but different filenames) Subversion saves both files in the
repository. I tested this with a fresh repository and the same 10MB
file named foo and bar. After adding foo the repository was ~13MB and
after adding bar it grew another ~10MB.

I searched the issue tracker and mailing list archives but I didn't
see anything about keeping only one copy of each unique file that's
added to a repository.

Has this been discussed before?
