Subsequently, Git relies on the proper configuration of this variable, as noted by Bryan Turner [1]: Git on a case-insensitive filesystem (APFS, HFS+, FAT32, exFAT, vFAT, NTFS, etc.) is not designed to be run with anything other than core.ignoreCase=true.

Do other people have difficulty applying this patch to their trees? It is just several lines long so I could retype it myself, but I guess "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=flowed" has destroyed formatting of the patch rather badly.
I had copy-pasted the patch into Thunderbird. The received email was looking fine in the inbox, however it seems that some leading whitespaces have been added to several lines (when comparing raw contents of v3 and v4). I have resent the patch with git send-email now.
