On a case insenstive file system x is the same as X. When a file named "X" exist, e.g. ">x && git add x" does not work as expected, use file name "Y" instead. Signed-off-by: Torsten Bögershausen <redacted> ---
It is a right thing to fix this, but do you have to use capital 'Y' here? I see both uppercase X and Y are used in the earlier tests in this script, and it may be that that earlier Y, unlike earlier X, does not interfere on your case insensitive system right now, but using a single letter 'Y' smells like a future breakage waiting to happen. Wouldn't it make more sense to name this a lot more distinctively and uniquely? In any case, I think this is only in the topic that has been listed as "Will discard", so I won't worry about it myself for now--if the topic will be resurrected in the future, reviewers should keep an eye to prevent it from adding this bug. Thanks.
