Filename case sensitivity on Windows.

Open AlanPBourke opened this issue 6 years ago • 0 comments

Not an issue as such but it might be worth mentioning for Windows folk who have no *nix exposure that when using command-line Git on Windows, the OS isn't case-sensitive when it comes to filenames but Git is.

So if you create 'bob.txt' then this, as per the tutorial, won't work in Windows:

git add Bob.txt

but this will:

git add bob.txt
