New description:
In case of differing environments, such as the linux FS and the OSX FS,
folders case-matching is important.
Consider an application with:
app label = "App"
model name = "Inventory" with tablename="inventory"
If a particular model's `change_form.html` needs to be overwritten we
would do the following
Overwrite `template/django/admin/App/inventory/change_form.html`
This works fine on Linux systems.
However on OSX systems the file shows up as
`template/django/admin/app/inventory/change_form.html`.
This breaks the functionality since the template is no longer found in the
`App/inventory` directory.
The app_label variable should be lowercased so the differing file systems
do not cause this issue.
