Summary0004775: cmake -E copy_if_different doesn't preserve case on Win32
DescriptionUsing cmake -E copy_if_different doesn't seem to preserve case for me when used by Win32.

IF(WIN32 AND NOT ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR} STREQUAL ${PROJECT_BINARY_DIR} )
    SET(SRC_FILE "${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/LibCigicl/bin/dllDebugMT_DLL/ccl_dll.dll")
    SET(DST_FILE "${PROJECT_BINARY_DIR}/LibCigicl/bin/dllDebugMT_DLL/ccl_dll.dll")

    MESSAGE("Going to copy ${SRC_FILE} to ${DST_FILE}")

    ADD_CUSTOM_COMMAND(
        OUTPUT "${DST_FILE}"
        DEPENDS "${SRC_FILE}"
        COMMAND "${CMAKE_COMMAND}"
        ARGS -E copy_if_different "${SRC_FILE}" "${DST_FILE}")
    ADD_CUSTOM_TARGET(CopyLibCigicl DEPENDS "${DST_FILE}")
ENDIF()

The result is:
libcigicl/bin/dlldebugmt_dll/ccl_dll.dll file

instead of:
LibCigicl/bin/dllDebugMT_DLL/ccl_dll.dll file.

Turns out this isn't a big deal but I still think case should be preserved by copy_if_different for all platforms.
