Description

If I have files named
banana.PNG
apple.png

When referencing the image from markdown files, it will be picky about the case:
[banana](banana.png) won't work.
[apple](apple.PNG) won't work.

I'm not sure if this is intended or not, but by default case changes in names aren't recorded into git. So I have to full on delete, commit, remake the file with the correct filename if I want it to change.

Because git doesn't care about case changes by default, I think Gitea shouldn't care about it either.
