BUGS
exFAT is a case-insensitive file system. Some things can behave unex‐
pectedly, e.g. directory renaming that changes only case of some char‐
acters:
$ mv FOO Foo
mv: cannot move ’FOO’ to a subdirectory of itself, ’Foo/FOO’
This happens because mv finds that destination exists (for case-insen‐
sitive file systems FOO and Foo are the same thing) and adds source
basename to the destination. The file system gets
rename("FOO", "Foo/FOO") syscall and returns an error.
