I have had funny experiences copying files from Linux to a NTFS partition, because NTFS is actually case-sensitive, but Windows itself is not, so you suddenly end up with two files that differ only by case and you can't delete or rename them (but funnily enough they show fine on Explorer).

Comedy. FWIW, git mv works on Windows for case-respecting renames
Yup, if I recall correctly the undeletable hidden file that git created was part of the issue.
