Vasily Galkin commented on SVN-4256:
------------------------------------
Encountered this issue while trying to integrate visual studio's external
command feature with svn 1.9.4 via python script (meld program).
For some strange reason visual studio passes file path to external command in
lowercase. Python software happens to execute subversion with current directory
extracted form command line argument passed by visual studio.
>From the user point of view the "svn status" command the behavior looks
>strange: it can fix the case in the command line argument, but can't fix case
>it in the current directory.
Here is the output of python executed from the root of subversion's itself
checkout containing file doc/README:
(note the changing case of letter D in "doc")

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

> Using a powershell console and standing in the working copy typing:
> PS c:\temp\WC> svn mkdir APPLE
> PS c:\temp\WC> Set-Location apple
> PS c:\temp\WC\apple>svn mkdir banana
> results in:
> svn: E150000: Can't find parent directory's node while trying to add
> 'C:\temp\WC\apple\banana'
> svn: E155010: The node 'C:\apple' was not found.
> Set-Location is powershell's version of "cd". The same error happens with its
> Set-LocationEx cmdlet.
> The user expects the command to create the banana directory without errors.
> In the similar case:
> svn mkdir APPLE
> svn mkdir apple\banana
> it works as expected, the banana directory is created without errors.
