Unable to get NetBeans sources from hg

[Jiri Sedlacek]

Hi dev,

today I was forced to start using mercurial and tried to get NetBeans sources. Following all the
hints at
http://wiki.netbeans.org/HgHowTos#section-HgHowTos-GettingAWorkingCopyCloningTheNetBeansRepository 
and http://wiki.netbeans.org/HgNetBeansSources I've started cloning the repository, but after ~1hour
it failed with following message:

  Output: [requesting all changes, adding changesets, adding manifests, adding file changes, added
84775 changesets with 387989 changes to 86220 files, updating working directory, abort: case-folding
collision between cnd.modelimpl/test/whitebox/scripts/preprocessor-for-project/cc and
cnd.modelimpl/test/whitebox/scripts/preprocessor-for-project/CC]

Could anybody more hg-knowledgeable explain how to get over this problem please? I'm using Windows
and just based on my NTFS knowledge I can't imagine this could ever work at all.

Thanks,
Jirka
