SF Standup 06/14/2011: Case Sensitive File System

Joseph Palermo
Tuesday, June 14, 2011

Ask for Help

“Why do NULL values get inserted as strings when using mysql LOAD DATA INFILE after dumping the data with mysql -e”

Unfortunately this team only has control over the import, not the existing export. Their only option found was to replace occurrences of NULL with N after getting the import file.

Interesting Things

A team again reminds us to be aware that the default file system in OSX is case insensitive. They thought this was the reason git would not commit a lowercase file rename for them. However, this setting was later found for your .git/config file.

ignorecase = false
