Actually, thinking more about it, there is a way to fix this issue in the client itself, but it's really hairy (and all other clients will have to implement the same trick of course): convert the 'svn rm' into an 'svn rm --keep-local' for every case-shadowed wc item. The check for finding a case-shadowed wc item is already present in cmdline.c (part of #3865). All we'd have to do then is making sure to call the lower levels with a keep-local flag for all the case-shadowed items in the target list (so potentially splitting up the 'svn rm' execution in two calls, one with keep-local=TRUE, and another with keep-local=<whatever the user said>). That's all :-). (I'm not suggesting that we do this, just pointing out the possibility. It's a commandline-only fix, all other clients are on their own then ... (but we could document this suggestion in the libsvn_client API that takes these targets ...)) -- Johan
