           Summary: Option for case insensitivity in filter rules
           Product: rsync
           Version: 3.0.6
          Platform: All
               URL: http://lists.samba.org/archive/rsync/2007-
                    March/017381.html
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal

DESIRED BEHAVIOR:

- Filter Rule: **.gif
- Plus an argument switch like: --filter-rules-case-insensitive
Result: matches all possible case permutations of .gif

CURRENT WORKAROUND:

- Filter Rule: **.[gG][iI][fF]
Remark: Not very user friendly, especially if you have a lot of filters.

PROCEDURES:

No related bug in the tracker, I searched for all relevant
keywords/permutations.
But the mailinglist mentions request + a patch:
http://lists.samba.org/archive/rsync/2007-March/017381.html

When will this feature be implemented into the main product line?
