  • OS Version: MacOS 11.5

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Create a disk image and format as case sensitive APFS
  2. git clone the main branch of vscode on new case sensitive volume
  3. Build and run code with ./scripts/code.sh
  4. Observer below log

Log: `$ ./scripts/code.sh yarn run v1.22.10 $ node build/lib/electron node:events:371 throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event ^

Research direction
Investigate the build script that uses glob patterns, specifically the file glob for macOS resources. The error occurs in `build/lib/electron` (likely `build/lib/electron.ts` or `.js`). Consider using a case insensitive glob or renaming the file to match the actual case. Check if the file exists on case sensitive filesystems and ensure consistent casing across the repository.
