Filesystem – Install Adobe CS 6 on External Hard Drive

filesystem

My SSD is formatted case sensitive, so when I attempted to install I got this:

Installation on case sensitive volumes isn't allowed. Please choose a case insensitive location.

But I can't select the install location.

Not the answer you want, but whatever.

Re-format your SSD to the default of HFS+ case-insensitive. Almost all Mac software is designed to run on a case-insensitive file system and you using case sensitivity is the problem.

Maybe you'll find a solution here.

How to rename a file in git that differs by case only

As asked and answered on stackoverflow, there's an easier way to do this that doesn't involve making a new file system in a disk image file:

Move your existing file aside, commit that move, then move it back using the case you'd like it to maintain and commit. Done.

Example:

mv foo foo2
git add -A
git commit -m "renaming"
mv foo2 FOO
git add -A
git commit --amend -m "renamed foo to FOO"
