Hi Guys,
I recently run into a funny git situation.
I had a directory under git control named "someName", with a bunch of
files inside. This was committed and working for some time.
I then added a file name "somename", and under linux, that worked OK.
However when I checked out the project under windows (either clone or
pull) one or the other would disappear and it would be staged as removed.
The surprising bit for me was not so much that windows could not cope
with the case sensitivity, but that git would stage the changes!
I have attached a new git project with the problem that should help show
the issue.
If you clone from this repo on a windows box you should be able to see it
BTW, I'm using git v 1.7.4.1
