Hi,

I've found a bug in how VisualSVN deletes its repositories (bug
concerning permissions). Here is steps to reproduce.
First, I've created repository with the name all in CAPS (let's say
ABC) and added a few windows users to be able to read and write from
this repository.

Then I've deleted it and created exactly same name but all in a small
characters (i.e. abc).
On my attempt to configure permissions for "abc" - I was able to add
users in to the list, but once I clicked Ok or Apply - they
dissapeared from the list. Despite the list was empty some users were
able to work with repository.

The only possible fix to this was to go and edit authz-windows and I
immediatelly figured out what's happened.
The file had two sections:

[ABC:/]
user1=rw
user2=rw
user3=rw

[abc:/]

Once I deleted ABC section - VisualSVN started to work properly.
So it's seems to me, that there is a bug in deleting repositories - at
least in my case authz-windows has not been properly updated.
