Why does a filename case change work locally but fail on Linux CI?
KitForma editorial guide. Case-insensitive filesystems can hide a mismatch between import spelling and the actual tracked filename. Linux often distinguishes those names.
Step-by-step answer
Case-insensitive filesystems can hide a mismatch between import spelling and the actual tracked filename. Linux often distinguishes those names.
Inspect the Git index and rename through an intermediate distinct path when needed so Git records the intended case. Update every reference and test on a case-sensitive environment. Do not solve the problem by disabling case checks globally. Two files whose names differ only by case can make cross-platform checkouts ambiguous, so avoid introducing them. The deployed artifact should be built from tracked files, not a local directory that happens to contain a stale alternate name.
