I am trying to work on a project which contains files whose names only differ in case.

Example:   foobar.c   FOOBAR.c

I ran into this problem when checking the source code out from Subversion. My investigation of the problem indicates that the OS-X filesystem is not case sensitive. (which I found odd for a UNIX based system)

Is there a way to work around this problem?

svn mv ... (yes, this is a serious recommendation).

Or, you could do your work on an HFSX partition with case sensitivity enabled using either Disk Utility, diskutil(8), or hdiutil(1) (for disk images).


Is it possible to create a file based, file system which can then be mounted and used. Sort of like a writable ISO.


Thanks

Allen
