Again, I don't think that's the correct solution. What about the
translation table that was suggested back at the beginning of the
thread? That would solve the case insensitivity issue as well,  
whereas
this NFC "solution" does nothing for that.

Kevin,

you seem to know the problem fairly well. Could you write up a set of
testcases that show the bug? See the "t" directory in the git sources
-- you don't need to learn much about git internals, they are just
shell scripts (mostly, I think there's some perl there too). That
could lead to a good contribution to the project.

See now this is actually a very good suggestion. I probably should  
have done this long ago. Thank you very much for actually responding  
about the problem. You are the first person to do so.
