#42257: EncFS on HFS+, data loss risk

-------------------------+--------------------------------
 I recommend switching to the latest SVN revision of encfs, because it
 includes provisions in order to work correctly on case-insensitive
 filesystems (such as the Mac's HFS+).

 Versions up to 1.7.4_1 appear to work with case-insensitive filesystems,
 but they are in fact unaware of possible name collisions, since they
 assume case sensitivity. This may lead to '''data loss''', with
 probability proportional to the number of files stored in an encfs volume
 (speaking from personal experience and subsequent research).
