What:
Issue #216
Why:
On Windows operating systems, environment variables are case-insensitive.
However, if when you spawn a new process and pass the env with two variables (PATH and Path), in this new process process.env will contains both variables, and this breaks the subsequent logic.
Npm has logic to set both Path and PATH (if exist) variables on Windows, and by default used Path on Windows.
But if I use cgwin terminal on Windows for example, process.env contains PATH.
How:
I add patchPathEnv.js
remove duplicate variable if both exists.
