Subject: Make branch merging aware of underlying case-insensitive filsystems
X-Git-Tag: v1.5.6-rc0~68^2~3^2~3
X-Git-Url: https://git.tokkee.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=32260ad5dbc3100ebb5e05432198888bfbe600f8;p=git.git

Make branch merging aware of underlying case-insensitive filsystems

If we find an unexpected file, see if that filename perhaps exists in a
case-insensitive way in the index, and whether the file matches that. If
so, ignore it as a known pre-existing file of a different name.
