git isn’t tracking folder renames when the case of the letters change, but it will track it if the folder changes names. Is this intentional?
Here is an example:
08:51:26 ~/test $ git init Initialized empty Git repository in /Users/kcoleman/test/.git/ 08:51:29 ~/test (master #) $ mkdir main 08:51:44 ~/test (master #) $ cd main 08:51:46 ~/test/main (master #) $ touch readme.md 08:51:50 ~/test/main (master #) $ ls readme.md 08:51:53 ~/test/main (master #) $ cd .. 08:51:54 ~/test (master #) $ git add . 08:51:59 ~/test (master #) $ git commit -m "one" [master (root-commit) b0fddf6] one 1 file changed, 0 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) create mode 100644 main/readme.md 08:52:04 ~/test (master) $ cd main 08:52:14 ~/test/main (master) $ cd .. 08:52:27 ~/test (master) $ mv main Main 08:53:51 ~/test (master) $ git status On branch master nothing to commit, working directory clean 08:53:53 ~/test (master) $ ls Main 08:54:02 ~/test (master) $ mv Main MainA 08:55:44 ~/test (master *) $ git status On branch master Changes not staged for commit: (use "git add/rm <file>..." to update what will be committed) (use "git checkout -- <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)
deleted: main/readme.md
Untracked files: (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
MainA/
no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a") 08:55:45 ~/test (master *) $
