Did Git itself break anything? I don't think git broke anything it is just that the folder name was no= t=20 being changed to the one with a capital letter when I pushed on origin,= =20 the only way out I found was the one I described in my initial email. I= =20 thought then the problem might occur from git, but as you say it is=20 probably a cross platform issue. The folder initially created was named= =20 display, then I changed it locally but git wouldn't recognize it as=20 something to commit (platform windows7) I just wanted to let you know in case it would have been an issue you=20 wouldn't be aware of.
