Of course you can, make it lowercase internally and store the case formatted string for output.

That'd break git repos where files with the same name, but different case exist.

I was talking about branch names, not file names. File duplicates due to case sensitivity aren't a problem on Windows anyway because those are already enforced by the file system. Unless you have people working on Linux that have multiple files with a similar name but with different casing but those should know better.
