tortoisegit use incorrect case sensitive comparison

By SemilC... on September 11, 2010 23:02 (imported from Google Code)


>What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.
Init-commit a file ex "Resource.h"
2.
Rename, change capital letter to lower case, of the file to "resource.h"

>What is the expected output?
Windows is case insensitive so it shouldn't matter.

>What do you see instead?
tortoisegit loose track of files when the file name letter case is changed.
tortoisegit use case sensitive comparison (i assume) to recognize files, in windows this is not the expected behavior.

>What version of the product are you using?
TortoiseGit 1.5.3.0
git version 1.7.1.msysgit.0

>On what operating system?
Windows XP SP3 32-bit

>Please provide any additional information below.
