I'm not sure I understand you now ;)

My "issue" is that I need to rename a file twice if I want to change only case of name. I interpreted your answer like "You don't have to from Hg's point of view. However, Windows treats file names case insensitive so in your environment you have to".

Yes, I'm on win. Didn't think that matters if the OS treated file names as case sensitive or not but instead Hg somehow kept the file name as a "case sensitive string" in its db - but I was obviously wrong in my (newbee) thoughts...

It's of course not a big issue but good to know anyhow. Thanks.

I'm not sure why you think there is any issue at all?
