While it's a nice workaround, it really is just that (a workaround)

Not only is it suboptimal, it's also not acceptable, plain and  
simple.
If it's not acceptable, do something about it (and I don't mean  
writing 50
emails). If you don't want to do something about it, I have to  
assume that
you accept it as-is.
I never said I don't want to do anything about it. However, I do  
believe that it will take a significant investment of time and energy  
to learn all the gooey details of how git handles filenames and how  
the index works and all that jazz, which is knowledge that other  
people already have. I believe that, for me to solve this problem  
independently, it may require so much time that it never gets done  
(after all, I am fairly busy). However, if other people who already  
have this knowledge are willing to help, that would make this task far  
easier, especially given that if nobody else even acknowledges that  
this is a problem I don't have much hope of getting a patch accepted.
So again, I'm certainly going to try, but working by myself it simply  
may never get done.
