Here's the ideal behavior that I'm aiming for:
instead of
./term.h include/term.h term.h
It should be
./term.h /usr/include/term.h
Or possibly
./term.h /usr/include/term.h foo/term.h
when you have another term.h in some subdirectories of your path setting, say
".,/usr/include,/home/user/project/**,,".
In summary for duplicate filenames don't "basename" them, instead make them
uniquely "find-able" while keeping the names as short as possible and when that
is not possible use the fullpath instead.
My initial attempt at fixing the duplicates was roughly in that
direction but was
stalled because the other (non-)solution that I posted seemed simpler
to implement.
I'll look into this again sometime next week.
