Interesting, but is that a git ↔ Windows problem, or a tomono specific problem?
Can you do this on Windows?
git init
git commit -m root --allow-empty
git checkout -b foo
git checkout -b FOO
If not, I think the problem is a wider git + windows one, not a tomono one. You'd have to get this fixed upstream.

the workaround they propose in that SO question seems like a good choice btw: clone one of the repos to a case sensitive filesystem, rename the branch to match the other's case, then merge that in, instead.
Closing as WONTFIX since this seems to be by design on Windows, and the problems are upstream, not here. There is a work-around (see SO). Feel free to continue discussing if relevant.
If two repos have branches which differ only in upper/lower-case, then the merge will fail on Windows
