Here is what Sourceforge have to say: https://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?group_id=1&docid=29894#limitations
Case Sensitivity in File and Directory Names: SourceForge.net CVS servers are running a version of the Linux operating system. On SourceForge.net CVS servers, filenames are case-sensitive; a file with the name of 'filename' is distinctly separate from a file with the name of 'Filename'. This is in direct contrast with the case insensitivity of operating systems such as Microsoft Windows. Windows would treat both of those filenames as the same file. Users of case insensitive operating systems should be careful with their filenames. This can prevent access to data in your repository for some users. Should conflicting filenames be committed into the repository, a Support Request will need to be filed. File Naming Limitations: File and directory names should not contain spaces; not all platforms handle spaces well. Commonly-reserved filenames should also be avoided. Some reserved filenames follow (treat all as if they are case insensitive, don't use them with a different case):

Hi Please could everyone avoid using Uppercase letters in directory names. I will try to modify the scripts to prevent this form happening. Avoid using spaces in image names.
Definitely make sure that you do not check in any file with uppercase extensions. E.g. PNG
If you do – the HTML links will not work on all platforms.
If you have done this – it is too late or you change it. It requires a series of email exchange with the SourceForge development team to get the file renamed. The difficulty is caused by Windoze not being case sensitive unlike Unix that really cares about these things
