Search for branch name should be not case sensitive or allow to switch it off
Summary
When filtering branches using the branch name someone has to remember exactly how a specific name of the branch was written.
Example: I worked on a feature about user interactions, I remember that in my team we used interaction
in the branch name but I don't remember which of its letters where capital ones. To find this branch through gitlab using this 'keyword' I would have to try different combinations of it to find the branch. It would just better IMHO if the search would just be case insensitive as git seems to have problems with case sensitivity as well.
Steps to reproduce
- Open gitlab and open a Project
- Go to Repository->Branches
- Using the field 'filter by branch name' start typing a branch name but with the wrong letter casing
What is the current bug behavior?
You are not able to see the branch if you don't guess the right letter casing.
What is the expected correct behavior?
Search just works as expected and shows me results with ANY letter casing that matches my input.
Output of checks
This bug happens on a Gitlab CE version.
