I am using Ubuntu with a case sensitive file system, and I have downloaded some zipped directories from Dropbox. I assume the zipped directories were created on a case insensitive file system, probably Windows. When I extract the files, I get multiple version of the directories and sub-directories in different cases. For example, after extracting I have "folder-a" and "Folder-A" which each have some of the contents that should be in the real "Folder-A". The two versions of the directory clearly need to be merged. Manually, this is tedious once subdirectories get deep.

I'm hoping to answer either one of the two questions:

  1. Is there an extraction command which can handle these case issues (I just used right-click->Extract Here)?

OR

  1. Is there an easy way to rename and merged these directories recursively?
