It's not even actually that bad, at least not since January of 2020: https://stackoverflow.com/a/59687740/1858225
That’s called a workaround. No end user should have to rely on a workaround as a solution to a bug; and make no mistake, it’s a bug.
Sounds like a feature to me
My point is that the claim in the comic and in other comments that this corrupts your repo or loses work simply isn't true.
But whose bug is it? Really, Git origins have it tied to Linux development.
Case sensitivity, or the lack thereof, on a filesystem is opinionated. That's the real issue and is not a bug.
