You picked up a rename of a file from lower case extension to upper  
case extension. Unfortunately, there are several months between  
adding the upper-case and removing the lower-case version.

We can reconstruct what happened with this using svn log on the  
directory (this does not require a checkout):

$ svn log --verbose svn+ssh://dev.open-bio.org/home/hartzell/bioperl/ 
bioperl-live/trunk/t/data

Searching for HUMBETGLOA yields the following two commits that added  
one and removed the other:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
r2245 | jason | 2001-12-08 11:59:05 -0500 (Sat, 08 Dec 2001) | 2 lines
Changed paths:
    M /bioperl-live/trunk/t/SearchIO.t
    A /bioperl-live/trunk/t/data/HUMBETGLOA.FASTA
    A /bioperl-live/trunk/t/data/cysprot1.FASTA

added tests for FASTA

------------------------------------------------------------------------
r2877 | jason | 2002-03-11 22:39:40 -0500 (Mon, 11 Mar 2002) | 2 lines
Changed paths:
    A /bioperl-live/trunk/t/data/HUMBETGLOA.fa
    D /bioperl-live/trunk/t/data/HUMBETGLOA.fasta

renaming file to avoid clobbering on windows

Unfortunately, both files are in the tag (again, no checkout required):

$ svn list svn+ssh://dev.open-bio.org/home/hartzell/bioperl/bioperl- 
live/tags/release-0-9-2/t/data | grep HUMBETGLOA | grep -i fasta
HUMBETGLOA.FASTA
HUMBETGLOA.fasta

We can remove the offending version from the repository (again,  
without needing a checkout):

$ svn rm svn+ssh://dev.open-bio.org/home/hartzell/bioperl/bioperl- 
live/tags/release-0-9-2/t/data/HUMBETGLOA.fasta

I did this, and now the tag checks out fine on OSX. Can anyone confirm?

(BTW the ability to operate on the repository w/o needing a checkout  
is another advantage of svn)
