Hi, I am working in a hetrougenous development envoronment that share code through a source revision constrol system (not CVS). This is causing some problems (make, etc.) when e.g a source file has an include statement with incorrect case. This can easily be fixed, but it is not convinient when having to correct many files. I have currently worked around the problem with samba, but this is slow, and are causing other problems due to lowercase convertion. So, why are 'linux' filesystems case sensitive? Having two files or directories that only differ by case is IMO wrong, but should at least be controlable with a generic mount option. I have briefly looked at the VFS code, and are uncertain of what parts to change. Is it sufficient to only change fs/dcache: d_lookup? thanks petter wahlman -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
