Check the name of that file carefully and you will find two files that
are very closely named. They differ only by case.
HomePageAvailabilityOfPhpAndMysql.mdwn
HomepageAvailabilityOfPhpAndMysql.mdwn
The file with the upper case P has been there for some time as a zero
sized file. The other file with the lower case p has had the content
you just found.
During r11 both files were added. At r16 Karl removed the redundant
file but strangely it still exists in my old sandbox as a zero sized
file. Strange. It should have been deleted. Some strange svn funny
happening with that file.

Some strange svn odd thing happened here in my sandbox too. Since the
log shows the file deleted but I still have the file.
I think somehow you copied the lower case p file to the upper case P
file. Since it was modified it was a candidate for a commit and your
commit accidentally pulled in the file.
I suggest simply removing the file and leaving the other one.

It is hardly any trouble. None worth mentioning. Thank you for
working on the documentation!
