Vscode: Git gutter breaks when filename case changes

Created on 25 Apr 2018  ·  3Comments  ·  Source: microsoft/vscode

Create a file and commit it to Git. Change the file's case, even just one letter, so that Test.js becomes test.js, for instance.

Then restart VSC, just to be sure. Open the test.js file. Modify it. No Git gutters will appear.
