Syncing stopped due to case collision in tree

[svandragt]

I use automatic sync and I observed syncing was no longer working and state difference between various machines and also the web client.

I ran run_jottad && jotta-cli sync stop && jotta-cli sync trigger, which returned:

ERROR Could not perform triggered sync: /dj-samples/Legacy/SoundFont2 Waves/Applause Samples already exists with different case: Case Collision in tree

1. So it seems some part of the infrastructure is case insensitive and can't handle multiple directories or files with the same name different case.
2. Why is jotta-cli not skipping the file and continuing with the sync?
3. If I hadn't manually triggered a sync I wouldn't have known because according to jotta-cli status sync didn't show any errors.

I wrote a gist: https://gist.github.com/svandragt/a83803cbb6ef29f9df6b45b1eb28d63f to resolve this locally, after that I was able to resume syncing, but I am concerned now that this may happen again in the future.
