I think we already discussed a plan to store normalization mapping in the index extension section and use it to avoid getting confused by readdir(3) that lies to us. Is there any more thing that need to be discussed? I would presume that we would still add _new_ paths using the pathname we receive from the user (there is no need for us to be similarly insane as broken "normalizing" filesystems), but when deciding if a path is new or we already have it in the index would be done by seeing if an entry already exists in the index whose "normalized" form is the same as the "normalized" form of the given path --- that way we would not add two paths to the index that would "normalize" to the same string. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
