Keith Pierce commented on MIFOSADMIN-165:
-----------------------------------------

Recommended solution:

1. Remove one of the two files, and update links in any content to point to the 
other. This looks feasible because the two images appear to be identical. 
However, there may be small but essential differences that I cannot detect by 
eye.

Since the Drupal development community is heavily Mac-based, it would be best 
not to alienate possible contributors by requiring them to either use a volume 
formatted to be case-sensitive, or install a virtual OS that is case-sensitive 
such as Ubuntu.

Being Mac-based, I cannot implement this part of the solution since my Mac 
cannot distinguish between the two files. However, I will locate the content 
that references these two files.

2. Establish a standard for naming files in the distribution. I recommend that 
all file names be in lower case.

> For these three files in the mifos.org/mifos.com Git repository there's 
> another file in the same directory named identically except for case:
> {code}
> mifos/www/sites/default/files/images/manage_clients.jpg
> mifos/www/sites/default/files/images/manage_clients.JPG
> mifos/www/sites/default/files/images/manage_clients.preview.jpg
> mifos/www/sites/default/files/images/manage_clients.preview.JPG
> mifos/www/sites/default/files/images/manage_clients.thumbnail.jpg
> mifos/www/sites/default/files/images/manage_clients.thumbnail.JPG
> {code}
> Because the Mac's operating system is not case sensitive, it views the pairs 
> as the same file. This prevents me from cloning the repository locally on my 
> Mac: After cloning, the command {{git status}} returns this message:
> {code}
> $ git status
> # On branch master
> # Changed but not updated:
> #   (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed)
> #   (use "git checkout -- <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)
> #
> #     modified:   sites/default/files/images/manage_clients.JPG
> #     modified:   sites/default/files/images/manage_clients.preview.JPG
> #     modified:   sites/default/files/images/manage_clients.thumbnail.JPG
> #
> no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a")
> {code}
> My local clone contains only the '.jpg' files, not the 'JPG' files. It 
> appears that Git is confused by Mac's case-insensitive file system. This 
> effectively prevents me from creating a local development environment: I fear 
> that a push to the repository will have indeterminate effect on these files, 
> perhaps even deleting one of the pairs.
