I prefer case sensitivity, the filesystem shouldn’t do any magic like that. If someone types “file.txt”, opening “File.TXT” would be convenient, but also misleading. Ignoring case is what autocompletion/search is for imo.
The best things is when the OS enforces magic onto the filesystem. Ntfs is case sensitive but windoze is not. So expect some real fun times if you use ntfs on other systems.
Trying to rename a file to use the correct capitalization in a git repository on my Windows laptop for work was tricky. Or maybe it was subversion. Actually I think it was subversion. Either way it was a weird little puzzle for the day.
