I think it has been discussed before, but maybe Git needs a

Would it work for --casefold to be a commandline flag to fast-import,
instead of a global option affecting multiple Git commands?
Given that core.ignorecase=true means to fold filename case in quite a
number of places within Git right now, I would expect the same behavior
within a repository where fast-import is being run against
core.ignorecase=true.
So, I don't know what core.ignorecase should mean, but I'm pretty sure I
know what core.foldcase should mean.
Would --casefold work? Sure, but it would be a special case against the
existing core.ignorecase behavior that I don't think makes much sense.
