Static resource files in a bundle are not matching files correctly following retrieval of static resource bundle

[Stuart McVicar]

After retrieving a static resource (sfdx project ) from a sandbox (not scratch org), and it being “auto” opened by Illuminated Cloud, it seems to be mapping some files incorrectly making the file look like it's different in the sandbox compared to what is in source control.

It seems to be files with the same name.

It has happened with a few different static resource bundles.

The file path being mis-matched is below:
force-app/main/default/staticresources/E2E_UI_Resource/assets/less/font-icons/font-awesome/fonts/_notes/dwsync.xml

It seems to be finding the file below
force-app/main/default/staticresources/E2E_UI_Resource/assets/fonts/_notes/dwsync.xml

Please find attached the idea log file and a screenshot of the archive structure.

Thanks for filing, Stuart. This sounds like it should be pretty easy to reproduce. I'll see if I can address it in one of the near-term builds.

Thanks Scott.

Hi, Stuart. I apologize but I'm not seeing the described behavior in the log. Here's what I see for the file force-app/main/default/staticresources/E2E_UI_Resource/assets/less/font-icons/font-awesome/fonts/_notes/dwsync.xml (some reformatting for clarity):

That appears to be a correct match. Can you put together a very simple project that reproduces this issue consistently? That would help me debug it because what I'm seeing in the log does look correct.
