The other big change that is queued up and interacts with GitHub is
the renaming ALL-CAPS-NO-EXTENSION to lower-case-names.ilisp (for files managed by the file package).
This means a break in the version history because git-versions doesn’t do the right thing with the “move” (on linux) of FILENAME to filename. (Getting git mv to do the right thing is hard on MacOS and Windows case insensitive file systems).
There is some question about whether this change is “worth it”. I know there will be some changes needed for the file package, and finding if there is still a problem with FONTSAVAILABLE with the case of the font filenmes.
On the other hand, the benefit is one less strangeness on case sensitive file systems.
Probably some maiko changes will be needed to make {DSK} do Unicode file names.
I think for implementing things like git-versions.sh

Subject: GitHub space plan
In the 7 June meeting, Larry mentioned I had proposed a second option for resolving space issues on GitHub. Since I had to drop off early for a work meeting, I thought I'd send an email and hopefully spur on the discussion.
