What just trying to give some friendly info. I thought my Mac file system was case-sensitve too until someone on the subversion mail list mentioned that it wasn't.

Yea, thanks. Even when the file system is not case sensitive the Unix pieces may be. I have found that some Unix commands on my Windows PC are case sensitive even though the underlying OS is not. It can be a bit tricky for new users to understand what is happening. To be safe with Unix commands you are better to think of them as case sensitive for options.
