Okay, you're using Windows. On Windows, Foo and foo are the same file,
but on Unix, they're two different files. Subversion is suppose to be
case sensitive, so Foo and foo are two different files in Subversion
whether or not the server or client are on Windows systems or Unix
systems.

Do you have any post-commit hooks? If you are, are the messages being
generated by Subversion or the post commit hooks?
