svn: URL <foo> of existing dierctory <foo> does not match expected URL <foo>

Question

Ok I have seen this and still do not know how to solve without deleting my current folder and getting new. but there must be a better solution. Here is my exact error:

svn: URL 'http://moray.aniworld.local:8080/svn/Devon/trunk/IncurredCost' of exis ting directory 'trunk\IncurredCost' does not match expected URL 'http://moray.an iworld.local:8080/svn/devon/trunk/IncurredCost'

Note that there are no duplicate directory names in my repository. How can I fix this so that I can just do "svn update" at the top level and have this one annoying fodler update properly?

Edit: this is the situation, I have repo foo, with a trunk, and then subfolders d1, d2, d3, and d4. d1 has alot of binaries that i don't want to delete and get again (over http and VPN, it's slow). because the files are there, and in sync already. I just want to tell svn that everything is OK, no need to get everything all over.

You actually have the same problem as here wich makes this question a duplicate (and it will probably be closed soon for that reason). The problem is that you have on your SVN two folders with the same name but which are of different case. For example: trunk\IncurredCost and trunk\incurredcost
