Re: Cannot reset a repo

arghh, sorry that's embarrassing. I was sure that the Mac filesystem was case sensitive by default, because it's unix based...
Thanks for your  support.

Hi,

I am facing this problem:

- Using git version 1.9.3 (Apple Git-50)
- cloned a fork from GitHub to my local machine:
https://github.com/mar10/cdnjs/
- This repo seems to be broken in some way.
  At least it is not clean from the beginning and I am not able to reset
  `git reset --hard` only toggles the modified file from
".../sortable" to ".../Sortable" and back
  (see attached screenshot)

Is this a known problem (with case sensitivity)? 

I think so

Any suggestions how to  fix it?

Try to rename Sortable into Sortable.u:
git mv Sortable Sortable.upper
(When that does not work)
git mv sortable sortable.lower

If this is not an option, use a USB Stick, format it with HFS+ "case sensitive"
and clone the repo to the stick

Thanks for responding.
It is a fork of the 6GB cdnjs repository and I don't own the sortable lib. So renaming is not an option.

Can you fix it a send a pull request to the author on github ?

Also, I am working on a MacBook, which already has a case sensitive file system
