Files open to multiple tabs due to case in path

[Waver]

I believe this started with the Build 3170 update.

E:\Project\file.cpp
e:\project\file.cpp

Sublime is treating these as two different files, and opening them into separate tabs.

I compile using a custom build system with a file_regex so I can F4 through errors. When I open a file through Sublime it comes in with an upper-case drive letter and whatever other upper-case characters are in the path. From the compiler output, the file path is always printed out completely lowercase. So every time I F4 through errors I end up with two of every file open.

Any help would be appreciated.

[BUG] Use the actual filename case in window.open_file API method

On case insensitive filesystem (Windows, OSX), the filename given as argument to the window.open_file API method is used to open the file, which works fine, but is used to set the view.file_name() instead of the actual filename. This lead to some issues with some external software (like git, but others coming from LINUX too) that is partially case insensitive (AAA.txt is not the same file as aaa.txt for git). In addition some plugins that use the view.file_name() as key for some internal dicti…

using subl behaves correctly, but window.open_file doesn't (tested on build 3175 on Win7 x64) >>> window.open_file(r'd:\tmp\test.txt').id() 48 >>> window.open_file(r'D:\tmp\test.txt').id() 49 also, the file path shown in the tab title is missing the : when it duplicates: [image] related:
