My repo has a change where a directory named Src was renamed to src.

That is no problem for git-filter-branch.

I'm using case insensitive HFS+.

That is the problem.

I vote for wont-fix (or more accurately "invalid") in git and
please-fix-in-your-setup.

Would love to switch to case sensitive HFS+, but it causes a number of problems for OS X users - a number of 3rd party applications don't bother supporting case sensitive formatting (notably Adobe :/ ).


I appreciate that it's difficult and/or impossible to make certain operations work on case insensitive FS's, but it seems like git ought to at least complain noisily when it encounters such a situation...
