Random thought. Would it make sense to implement a git paranoid
mode to autodetect name mangling.
I.e. After opening or creating a file by name we do a readdir in the
same directory to make certain we can find that same name/inode
combination. Then on name-mangling systems we can autodetect they
exist and limit ourselves to just what they don't mangle with no
prior knowledge. By refusing to process names that actively
get mangled. For small directories that you frequently see in
development it shouldn't even be that slow.
