Case-Insensitive Case-Preserving Overlay FUSE File System

cicpoffs

This is a case-insensitive overlay FUSE file system, like CIOPFS.

The difference is that:

  • This one preserves the original case.
  • This one doesn’t have the limitation that “All filenames in the data directory which aren’t all lower case are ignored.”
  • This one has been very poorly ported to work with modern (3.0+) versions of FUSE.

Motivations

  • Run Stardew Valley (linux) with some mods (that are cross-platform in theory, but relies on Windows' case-insensitive file system).
  • Run TESV:Skyrim (linux) with some mods (that are cross-platform in theory, but may have issues deriving from Windows' case-insensitive file system and there's no enforceable convention in modding).

Pre-built packages

Check the releases tab.

Preserve inode number

Add -o use_ino argument to the commandline otherwise each case combination that points to the same file will get different inodes.
