From: Jeff King Date: Mon, 24 Nov 2014 18:39:12 +0000 (-0500) Subject: verify_dotfile(): reject .git case-insensitively X-Git-Tag: v1.8.5.6~1^2~8 X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=cc2fc7c2f07c4a2aba5a653137ac9b489e05df43;p=git verify_dotfile(): reject .git case-insensitively We do not allow ".git" to enter into the index as a path component, because checking out the result to the working tree may causes confusion for subsequent git commands. However, on case-insensitive file systems, ".Git" or ".GIT" is the same. We should catch and prevent those, too. Note that technically we could allow this for repos on case-sensitive filesystems. But there's not much point. It's unlikely that anybody cares, and it creates a repository that is unexpectedly non-portable to other systems.
