Folders with same names but different cases do not display correctly

    • Type: Bug
    • Resolution: Not a bug
    • Priority: High
    • None
    • Affects Version/s: 1.6.1
    • Component/s: Git
    • None
    • Environment:

      Mac OS (1.6.1) and Windows (0.9.2.3)

      We have folders to group our branches (feature/, bug/ etc.). Some developers have used Feature/branch_name_1 and others have used feature/branch_name_2 (the difference being the capital F on the folder).

      SourceTree will only show one of those folders (so in my origin/ I can only see Feature/branches and not feature/branches).

      On the command line if I git fetch or pull, the branches from the other feature folder are created (and git branch --all lists them).

      If I just to SourceTree they are listed (all under the same Feature folder) but when I fetch, the ones that use lowercase f are removed and even git branch --all doesn't show them).

      We are unable to rename the branches (SourceTree - or could it be git - is insisting on using the previous case for Features everywhere) so we're stuck in a position where we cannot see half of our branches in SourceTree.

        • Also occurs in Windows **
