    Description

      When subversion creates a file in the HFS+ filesystem of the OSX, the operating
      system normalizes the filenames to decomposed form of UTF-8. If the subversion
      repository contains filenames which are not in this form (for example if the
      repository is created in windows/linux and contains an "á" character).
      
      To reproduce the steps:
      - Create a file in a repository with "á" character in it in Windows or Linux
      - Commit it
      - Check out/update the repository on OSX on HFS+
      - Get a status of the repository
