xormetricah yes filesystem case sensitivity. good shit
1 8haileyi have no idea how i even got into this state though!! absolutely bizarre...xcode does some weird stuff with "groups" not always being "directories" though so i suspect that is part of it.
2 7xormetricyeah this is usually the point i'd reset --hard back a few commits to get into a good state and copy the new code back in manually lol
maybe something like git mv Aa/* AA/ would work tho since git is for sure case sensitive
1 3haileyi got out of it by just deleting all those directories from xcode, commiting the deletions, then adding the files back manually...
i was commiting all day in this borked state and didnt even realize lol

Carl VitulloYup I was checking the comments to make sure you'd gotten it, I've hit this before and it's MADDENING. Recognized it immediately from your description, it stuck with me
2 3Carl VitulloDeleting, committing, undeleting, committing, is also the only fix I'm aware of (but iirc you can squash the commits away and it works fine after)
3haileyabsolutely wild! the fact i couldnt even discard the changes to switch off of the branch was the icing on top of the whole thing....
1 2Carl VitulloLike being a year 1 dev again wrestling with the filesystem! It's just degrading!

Jeff Hamiltonwe had a weird bug on city of heroes where some dev environments had different capitalization which, to the client's patcher, would signify that the file needed to be redownloaded. So for years some players would randomly get multi-gig patches based on which dev did the last checkin on a patch

Kuba Suder 🇵🇱🇺🇦Yeah, that was… always tricky. And IIRC they're changing something with this again in this new coming version ;)
1Kuba Suder 🇵🇱🇺🇦Oof… sounds like not fun. Generally filesystems on the Mac are case-insensitive by default, and funny things might happen if you try to have two files with the "same" name… I'd try to use the terminal to rename one of those so they're seen as different names.
1 1haileythe weird thing is the one that is `Hls` doesn't even show up in the file system!

Natanael, Tech janitorDid you end up with some very weird indirections stuck in various places? Try the renaming thing anyway, and try it twice in a row even with different target names just to see what happens. Might get something unstuck?
