      A quick search leads to hundreds of cases of problems with branch name case
      including one from atlassian where there are problems with mixed case in
      branch names:
      https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/BitbucketServerKB/Case-sensitivity+in+branch+name+causes+issue

      Microsoft recommends all lower-case branch names:
      https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/repos/git/case-sensitivity?view=azure-devops#branch-and-tag-names

      Some git clients will even convert some parts of branch names to
      lower-case, like when using '/' in the name. GitHub Desktop had problems
      with this, Visual Studio had problems with this, Jetbrains products had
      problems with this, etc.

      There are lots of documented problems for GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket and
      other providers about mixed case branches and tags.

      For all these reasons, most git guides, naming conventions, etc recommend
      using all lower-case branch and tag names.
