Bugs Details: Git checkout case Insensitive branch name compare
Steps to Reproduce: I have a remote branch which is as shown below. Example: feature_12345_write.netCodeForSomeFeature I used the git command on git bash and typed "feature_12345_write.NetCodeForSomeFeature" thinking I am mapping "feature_12345_write.netCodeForSomeFeature" locally. So after I got the branch locally, I tried git pull and I see the following "Your configuration specifies to merge with the ref 'refs/heads/feature_12345_write.NetCodeForSomeFeature' from the remote, but no such ref was fetched. Although when I did "git log", it shows proper history for "feature_12345_write.netCodeForSomeFeature" branch. However when I use the command "git pull --rebase origin branch" it says "fatal: Couldn't find remote ref feature_12345_write.NetCodeForSomeFeature" Because the remote branch has 'n' instead of 'N' in '.net' for branch name. This is because I used "git checkout branch" instead of "git checkout branch origin/remote branch name" since the local branch name I wanted was the same as the remote branch name. I don't see this in other branches. I think the command is not considering case sensitivity of characters in the branch name. Thanks. -- Best Regards, Kinchit Raja
