Well, talking about the SVN, i comment this fail i found at svn some days ago. Maybe this should go at bugzilla but i found no place for it, and it's so trivial... (less than 10 minutes).
Here it is. At the tags folder svn://svn.wikimedia.org/svnroot/mediawiki/tags there are two folders with the same name. initial (from revision 8115) and Initial (from r1082).
I guess it should simply be merged, as the folders have different subfolders. In any case, they should at least be renamed.
The way it's now blocks checkouts to cas insensitive FS.

Don't check out the entire repo, that's a waste of time, disk space, etc. Check out specific bits.

I think they are the same human-word. I have $wgCapitalLinks set ;) I don't see the point of having that two folders separated. The contents are on different subfolders so no problems would came from there. Maybe links to the repository? I don't think it's being very linked. And most references to the moved folder would be handled by the subversion merge feature.

It's not something very likely, but the repo _is going to fail_ for somebody with an uncommon config. If we were going to only accept valid input most of the parser work wouldn't be necesary and this maillist wouldn't be full of 'MediaWiki automated test run failure's.

Fine, I renamed one.
