Does this work for you via svn?

On OS X, the default is a non case-sensitive filesystem. I use OS X and have encountered issues with case-change-only commits in svn.

IOW, are you sure this is an issue in git-svn and not an issue in filesystem + svn? For example, I think you will also have problems with a repository that contains in the same dir TESTFILE and TestFile :-\
