I get an error if I misspell part of the path. For example, if I type
//depot/maain instead of //depot/main I will get the "no such files"
message you indicated. BUT using incorrect case like //depot/main
instead of //depot/Main doesn't return any error, but still completes
and creates an empty repo. If it does require correct case, then it
should throw an error for //depot/main as well.

Let me know if you need any additional information.
