I just got a shiny, brand-new Debian server handed to me by our Systems group, and the /etc directory is kept under version control with Subversion.

Is there a windows implementation to python libsvn?

Because windows is case-insensitive and because SVN is case-sensitive and because VS2005 tends to rename files giving them the lower-case form which messes my repositories' history, I've tried to add the pre-commit hook script from http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/contrib/hook-scripts/case-insensitive.py.

How to copy a repository from Unfuddle to a local SVN server?

I currently have a couple of SVN repositories hosted at Unfuddle and I'd like to have a local copy of the repositories as a backup.
