Re: Mercurial problem?

I believe that the problem is that you are running MacOS instead of a real 
Unix system.  Remember that the mac file naming system in mACos is sort of 
uni-case.  Although characters in file names can be upper case or lower case, 
the equality predicate on file names does case folding.  :-(

I'm not sure just what the solution is, in this case.  I'm also not sure just 
why there are two files in the repository whose names are considered equal on 
a mAc.  (My guess is that the push was done from a Mac, however.)

As someone who is regularly bitten by this stupidity in MacoS,
peter
