How to change capital letters for Mac #18

At first, I created two local folders with the names of "HW1" and "HW2" but the required names should be "hw1" and "hw2"; so I changed the local folders' names and pushed online. The thing is that nothing changed online. The names of the folders are still "HW1" and "HW2".

Solution: backup the files inside. delete the old "HW1" and "HW2" folders and create"hw1" and "hw2". then paste the files into the new folders.

Key points:

path on MAC system is case insensitive but case preserving, so hw1 and HW1 appears as one thing in your local disk
path in URL scheme is case sensitive, so xxx.github.io/hw1 and xxx.github.io/HW1 are two different locations.
