git under windows doesn't check case of letters in filename. So when one rename for example images from *.JPG to *.jpg, git doesn't files in a repository so when one deliver this repo on *nix -system, old filenames preserve and this matters. It can be very confusing when some of assets in your website on server can't be loaded after deploy, though on windows all was ok. Possibly git windows shall identify changed case of symbols and suggested to rename files in commit.
