Bad filenames in Subversion.

First of all - great job, I've been using Zeos for many years, and I'm very happy with it
Now to my problem;
In the SVN server there is a file duplicate - which causes checkout on trunk to fail on Windows. It's in the folder "artwork". In there you can find these two files;
TZUpdateSql.xpm
TZUpdateSQL.xpm
It's the same file, but with different case. Since Windows is cans insensitive this causes checkout of trunk to fail with an error. So one of these files must be removed from the repository.
I just solved this in our own SVN server today - so that's why I'm so sure about the cause of the problem

Peter
