So to summarize, when fast-import uses strncmp_icase (what fast-import does now) import on a repository where ignorecase=true is wrong. My patch, "fast-import.c: always honor the filename case" fixes this. Can you verify?
Thanks in advance,
Reuben
Yes, I can verify. My feeling is that
a) the fast-export should generate the rename the other way around.
Would that be feasable ?
Or generate a real rename ?
(I'm not using fast-export or import myself)
b) As a workaround, does it help if you manually set core.ignorecase false ?
c) Does it help to use git-hg-remote ? (could be another workaround)
And no, 50906e04e8f48215b0 does not include any test cases.
(try git show 50906e04e8)
This is only a short answer, I can prepare a longer answer about ignorecase the next days.
