mv: allow renaming to fix case on case insensitive filesystems
"git mv hello.txt Hello.txt" on a case insensitive filesystem always triggers "destination already exists" error, because these two names refer to the same path from the filesystem's point of view, and requires the user to give "--force" when correcting the case of the path recorded in the index and in the next commit. Detect this case and allow it without requiring "--force". Signed-off-by: David Turner <dturner@twitter.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
