Hi,

My repo has a change where a directory named Src was renamed to src.
That is no problem for git-filter-branch.
I'm using case insensitive HFS+.
That is the problem.

Of course, we could work around that in git, but frankly, you will turn 
into problems once you have files whose names differ only in case.  And I 
am certain somebody will come soon and report this as a bug in git!

I vote for wont-fix (or more accurately "invalid") in git and 
please-fix-in-your-setup.

Ciao,
