Description

git clone https://github.com/apache/ambari-metrics.git

above command logs following warning

warning: the following paths have collided (e.g. case-sensitive paths
on a case-insensitive filesystem) and only one from the same
colliding group is in the working tree:

  'ambari-metrics-timelineservice/src/main/resources/metrics_def/AMSSMOKETESTFAKE.DAT'
  'ambari-metrics-timelineservice/src/main/resources/metrics_def/AMSSMOKETESTFAKE.dat'
  'ambari-metrics-timelineservice/src/main/resources/metrics_def/TIMELINE_METRIC_STORE_WATCHER.DAT'
  'ambari-metrics-timelineservice/src/main/resources/metrics_def/TIMELINE_METRIC_STORE_WATCHER.dat'

I checked content of AMSSMOKETESTFAKE.DAT AMSSMOKETESTFAKE.dat is same.
Also the content of TIMELINE_METRIC_STORE_WATCHER.DAT and TIMELINE_METRIC_STORE_WATCHER.dat is same.

There is no reason to keep both the files. we should delete .DAT files.
