Node: meta: 2 identical files in the same folder

[vsemozhetbyt]

In deps/npm/node_modules/request/node_modules/form-data/ there are 2 identical files: Readme.md and README.md. This confuses archivators on Windows: each time they try to unpack a repo from a GH zip, they stop and ask if the file should be rewritten. I am not sure what we can do about this issue.

There should only be one...

I see that form-data has a Readme.md rather than a README.md, maybe something is capitalising it at some point?

[vsemozhetbyt]

npm has README.md: https://github.com/npm/npm/tree/latest/node_modules/request/node_modules/form-data

[Fishrock123]

I think it used to be README.md... so maybe git didn't rename it properly for case-insensitive filesystems?

cc @zkat but I think we can just remove the old README.md.

[zkat]

oh god just remove one please this has been a nightmare

[vsemozhetbyt]

So which of them should be removed?

[zkat]

@vsemozhetbyt README.md is the one that was (un?)intentionally capitalized

[vsemozhetbyt]

I can't actually remove it as I am on Windows so I can already have only one locally) Can anybody remove it from a proper OS?

[Fishrock123]

Yeah I'll get around to it today, hopefully.

[Fishrock123]

Ok uh, I can't seem to do it now, maybe after landing v4.5.0... @nodejs/ctc can someone with a case insensitive FS and git fix this?

[Fishrock123]

Maybe I can do it from the GitHub GUI.... https://github.com/form-data/form-data has Readme.md.

[Fishrock123]

Ok, looks like it worked from the GitHub GUI: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/12643
