Re: [TxMt] Beware of creating files with names that differ only in case!

Why on earth did creating a *new* file in a project apparently just create some sort of symbolic link to an existing file?? 2 different files "Distributions.py" and "distributions.py" both appeared in the project list, and both had their own tabs. Does this have something to do with having files that differ only in case? Very frustrating.

Hmm, the fact that I can do this seems like a bug:

I just created a new project, then selected "New File..." multiple times, providing the same name each time.

Your situation is slightly different, but arguably TextMate should not allow the same underlying file to appear in the drawer more than once.
