By any chance, were different operating systems or file systems involved in creation of this problem? There are file systems which care about the capitalization, and others don't. So if you have a file system which doesn't care about capitalization of the folder/file name, you can use a different capitalization and it still works. If you take the code to another system then, which is a bit more careful there are problems of course. The main question which remains, is how is Git involved? i.e. would it also happen if you just transfer a tarball?
