File operations won't work on case-sensitive file systems on macOS #1304

Description

@rjmholt

The normalizeFilePath function we use in some file manipulation functions assumes that all macOS file systems are case-insensitive, which is not true.

HFS+ and APFS have case-sensitive variants that we should try not to break. Also worth noting that NTFS is also case-sensitive, but Windows is not.

In general, I think we should not try to second guess the operating system and be case-preserving.
