OK.  And good.

My point was that it is not necessarily the case that, for Emacs,
_just because_ a filesystem is case-insensitive, you cannot
rename a file to the same name but with a different letter case.

It is also the case that, for MS Windows at least, you can do
such renaming outside Emacs (with Windows Explorer, for instance).

Some other OS might not allow for such renaming.  But for at least
some OSes such renaming is possible, including for Emacs.

See the bug I pointed to, where John explained that OS X filesystems
can be either case-sensitive or case-insensitive.  Unlike on Windows,
Emacs cannot assume file names are always case-insensitive, so a
run-time test is needed, and someone needs to write the code to do it.

FWIW, this is also true on Cygwin:

I was under the impression that most or all Cygwin users do use
case-sensitive file names.  Otherwise, quite a few packages that come
from Posix platforms will not work or mysteriously fail.

But if that's not the reality, then yes, a patch to add a run-time
test for Cygwin will also be welcome.

I don't know for sure, but I would guess the opposite, simply because 
using case-sensitivity requires reading the documentation and changing a 
registry entry.

The attached patch attempts to do this for both Cygwin and OS X.  I 
don't have access to an OS X system, so someone else will have to test 
the OS X part.

(file_name_case_insensitive_p, Ffile_name_case_insensitive_p):
New functions.
(Frename_file): Allow renames that simply change case when the

* lisp/dired-aux.el (dired-do-create-files): Use
'file-name-case-insensitive-p' instead of 'system-type' to check
for case-insensitivity.  (Bug#24441)

Thanks, please see a few comments below.

You shouldn't need to expand-file-name here, as all primitives do that
internally.  (Yours didn't, but that's a mistake, see below.)

What about filesystems mounted on Posix hosts, like Samba, NFS-mounted
Windows volumes, etc. -- do those behave as case-sensitive or not?  If
the latter, can that be detected?  Just asking, this shouldn't hold
the patch, unless incorporating that is easy (or you feel like it even
if it isn't ;-).

This "needs work"™.  First, it should call expand-file-name, as all
file-related primitives do.  Second, it should see if there's a file
handler for this operation, and if so, call it instead (Michael,
please take note ;-).  Finally, it should run the expanded file name
through ENCODE_FILE before it calls file_name_case_insensitive_p, and
pass to the latter the result of the encoding, otherwise the call to
getattrlist will most certainly fail in some cases.

This should call file_name_case_insensitive_p, and pass it the encoded
file names.  That's because the file handlers for rename-file were
already called, so we are now sure the file doesn't have any handlers.

Likewise here.

Finally, please provide a NEWS entry for the new primitive and its
documentation in the ELisp manual.

The same comment as for mounted fileystems is also valid for remote
files. Remote smb files could be or could be not case sensitive. The
same for remote files on Darwin macOS systems. I don't know whether this
could be detected automatically.

Furthermore, there are also other file name handlers in game. Think
about ange-ftp (ftp connections), think about url-handler-mode (http
connections and friends). One cannot know, whether the remote side is
case sensitive, or not.

In case it cannot be detected trustworthy, one could use default
assumptions depending on what the remote side is running. And a user
should be able to overwrite this assumption by setting a
connection-local variable for a remote machine, like
`case-insensitive-p'. Tramp and the orther file name handlers would take
this instead of its own heuristic, if this variable exists.

I don't have an immediate idea, but I added a "FIXME" comment and will 
think about it.

Actually, the handlers haven't been called yet at this point in the

The text is OK, but I think a better place is in the node "Truenames",
as that's where we document file-equal-p.  To put your description in
a proper context, perhaps precede it with a sentence such as
"Sometimes file names or their parts need to be compared as strings,
in which case it's important to know whether the underlying filesystem
is case-insensitive."

I've committed a patch to Tramp, implementing a handler. For the smb
method, it always returns t; for all other methods a runtime test is
performed (and the result is cached).

Implementing a connection-local variable in order to let the user
configure this is still open; will do next days.

bug#24441: 24.5; rename directory in dired to change case

[Tino Calancha]

Thanks for your report.

How did you try to rename it? What exact commands did you input?

In Dired i would do this operation using `R' or `wdired' as follows:
I)
emacs -Q -r
M-: (dired temporary-file-directory) RET
+ a RET
R A RET

II)
emacs -Q -r
M-: (dired temporary-file-directory) RET
+ b RET
C-x C-q M-u C-c C-c

I have tried both in emacs-24.5.1 and they works as expected.
Could you check if I), II) work for you?

That's because your filesystem is case-insensitve, thus /tmp/A already
exists.

FWIW, MS Windows is case-insensitive, but it nevertheless shows
files and directories using both uppercase and lowercase letters.
And it lets you rename "aa" to "AA", "Aa", etc.  The fact that
the file already exists does not prevent you from renaming it
to use different letter case.

And for MS Windows, at least, Emacs supports this as well,
including using Dired.

That's because we have special code for that, which is only compiled
in the Windows build.

Right.  This is a duplicate of bug#22300.  As explained there, patches
are welcome to introduce a run-time test for case-sensitivity of the
underlying filesystem, which then could enable on Darwin the same code
as we already use on MS-Windows.

bug#24441: 24.5; rename directory in dired to change case

[Paul Eggert]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1351 bytes --]

Three comments about that fix.

1. Emacs seems to conflate whether a file system is case-sensitive, and 
whether it is case-preserving. Darwin pathconf distinguishes between 
_PC_CASE_SENSITIVE and _PC_CASE_PRESERVING. For example, perhaps the 
following code in dired-do-create-files:

                (if (and (file-name-case-insensitive-p (car fn-list))
                     (eq op-symbol 'move)
                     dired-one-file

should also check whether (car fn-list) is on a case-preserving file 
system (if not, there's no point going ahead, as the user can't change 
the case anyway). I suppose this would require adding a Lisp predicate 
for _PC_CASE_PRESERVING. (Possibly the MS-Windows code already deals 
with this, and Cygwin and macOS are currently broken.)

2. From my reading of the Apple documentation, the code taken from that 
circa-2007 website should have problems on some file systems. It does 
not match what Wine does in a similar situation.

3. Nowadays, I hope pathconf works on Apple; that's simpler. If not, I 
think the Wine approach should be better. So I installed the attached 
patch to try to do that. If you have access to a case-insensitive file 
system on macOS, please try it out as-is, or compiled with 
-DDARWIN_OS_CASE_SENSITIVE_FIXME=1 or 
-DDARWIN_OS_CASE_SENSITIVE_FIXME=2, and let me know how it works.

I'm not aware of any reported problems on non-case-preserving 
filesystems.  Unless someone reports such a problem, my inclination is 
to leave things as they are.

The only case that I know of where a filesystem is case-insensitive,
but not case-preserving, is that of DOS FAT16 filesystems, and the
MSDOS port of Emacs already considers renaming a file in such a case
as a no-op that should not trigger an error.  So I think we can safely
ignore this hypothetical situation until someone actually describes
it.

As mentioned in the thread containing this message:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2017-05/msg00521.html

the DARWIN_OS_CASE_SENSITIVE_FIXME code was getting in the way of maintenance, 
and doesn't seem to be working or needed or used. I attempted to get it to work 
in the first attached patch (untested), and then removed it as described in the 
second attached patch. If that code ever turns out to be useful someone can 
revert the second patch and give my attempt a whirl.

As I understand it, the original bug was fixed last year; this email is merely 
about trying to make the fix easier to maintain.
