Description
⚠️ This issue respects the following points: ⚠️
- This is a bug, not a question or a configuration/webserver/proxy issue.
- This issue is not already reported on Github OR Nextcloud Community Forum (I've searched it).
- Nextcloud Server is up to date. See Maintenance and Release Schedule for supported versions.
- I agree to follow Nextcloud's Code of Conduct.
Bug description
due to a case sensitivity on the server, it'll accept one version over another, soft locking the desktop from downloading or merging the files.
example: Misc vs MISC
both can co exist in the server rather than being merged or aggregated
Steps to reproduce
- client A creates a folder with an upper case name
- client B creates a folder with a camel case name
- desktop app will only download one due to OS restrictions, some file merging may be present but files will not be visible to the desktop client

Expected behavior
folders will merge, OR at least warn the desktop client that folder names are duplicated and should be resolved, throwing an error.
would like an aggregation function on the server
