I have refactored a java class which involves changing the file name and the contents i.e. from

public class CloudSealUserDetails ... in CloudSealUserDetails.java to

public class CloudsealUserDetails ... in CloudsealUserDetails.java (note the case change from CloudSeal to Cloudseal)

When I run git status is shows that the contents of CloudSealUserDetails has changed and commits this but this is not the change that I made. Now if I look on my local file system I see a file called CloudsealUserDetails but in github i see CloudSealUserDetails and git pull/git status repots “Already up-to-date.”

Can anyone explain what I am doing wrong?

Thanks

    There is a bug (feature?) that Git won’t see differences in case – it’s often easier to rename it to something completely different, create a commit, then change it back again.
