Yeah, sorry. I noticed that (for the svn:// protocol on Windows,
anyway), the repository name can be any case, but the path within the
repository needs to be case senstiive.

Ie

svn://localhost/RENAME_TEST/trunk
svn://localhost/Rename_Test/trunk
svn://localhost/rename_test/trunk

all work, but:

Svn://localhost/rename_test/TRUNK

will not.
