I often use grep -r --include. But it has a really annoying problem - the comparison of the filename is case-sensitive. The -i option seems to apply only to the regex not the filename matching.

For example, I have many files named virtualenvironment.ini. But unfortunately, sometimes it is virtualEnvironment.ini, VirtualEnvironment.ini, etc.

Grep -r --include=virtualenvironment.ini skips the latter files. As a work-around, I use --include="[Vv]irtual[Ee]nvironment.ini" but this is cumbersome and not a complete solution.

Because Windows is case-insensitive/case-preserving, I think the Cygwin filename matching should also be case-insensitive. Am I missing something here?

Thanks,
Rich
