In case that wasn't clear, I believe that if you use "hg mv" to rename the
file, rather than Windows file move/rename operations, it will correctly
update the case-sensitive version of the name that Mercurial tracks without
requiring multiple renames/commits.

The improved behavior appears to have been included in Mercurial 2.1.2 (rename:
handle case-changing).
