You asked Git to track Foo/bar.md and the file system says "yes, it's here"
When you rename Foo/ into foo/, the file system still says "Foo/bar.md" 
is here.
You need to tell git about the rename :
git mv Foo/bar.md foo/bar.md

Why does anybody think that setting "core.ignorecase false" will 
convince the file system
to become case insensitive ?
