Git untracked files preventing checkout












2















I'm on the branch stage and i have capitalized all filenames, i want to checkout to branch develop but this error appears.



The following untracked working tree files would be overwritten by checkout:



application/controllers/cast_roles.php
application/controllers/home_page_sliders.php
application/controllers/invite_friend.php
application/controllers/signup_page_movies.php
application/controllers/special_users.php
application/controllers/upload_media.php


These files are there but they've been capitalized.



e.g.



application/controllers/Cast_roles.php
application/controllers/Home_page_sliders.php


How do i solve? Is there a way to remove file case sensitive?

    Do you want to discard changes or do you want to keep them? Was capitaizing the only change since the last commit?

  • What operating system are you on? Have you changed your core.ignorecase setting? Can you paste the output of git config --list --show-origin?

    Careful with git clean, be sure to understand what is going to be cleaned. A --dry-run is good practice before the real thing.
