I have a local folder named Pictures in repo，after I rename the folder to the lowercase pictures, the remote repo folder name still Pictures. I have tried this command:

$ git mv Pictures pictures
fatal: renaming 'Pictures' failed: Invalid argument

did not work. What should I do to let the remote github repo folder name move to the lowercase? I have rename the folder pictures to uppercase and using this command by add force:

$ git mv Pictures pictures --force
fatal: renaming 'Pictures' failed: Invalid argument

still did not work. my OS is macOS Monetey 12.3.1 with arm chip.

try using :

1)

run this in bash git config --global core.ignorecase false 
     -f
    --force

Force renaming or moving of a file even if the target exists

Or If this doesn't work

2)

git mv Pictures pictures1
git mv pictures1 pictures

It is 2 step process
