The case-fix is done when the commit dialog is started because if it
would be done later, the commit dialog would show the wrong info: it
would show the file that has the case wrong as missing. And that's very
confusing for users.
Also, it is never a good idea to leave the commit dialog open and edit
files while it is open. The commit dialog does monitor the file system
for changes while it is open to avoid committing files that are not even
shown (yet). But in this case this won't help.
But in your case, to fix this problem for good:
open the resource.rc file in an editor, search for "resource.h" and
adjust the case. Then remove the "resource.h" file from the solution
explorer, and add it back with the correct case.
After that, your 'Resource.h' file won't change the case every time
you're editing it.
