I had a strange problem when Maven repository files copied from ext4 drive to exfat drive didn't want to copy, saying file is open/locked and renaming is impossible. There were two sets of files like this:

.../.m2/repository/com/github/JnCrMx/discord-game-sdk4j/v0.5.5/discord-game-sdk4j-v0.5.5-javadoc.jar
.../.m2/repository/com/github/JnCrMx/discord-game-sdk4j/0.5.5/discord-game-sdk4j-v0.5.5-javadoc.jar

Somehow sometimes the v0.5.5 file ended up in 0.5.5 (they differed by 1 byte and date, so it was easy to tell which is which). The same happened for 3 other files, but not for a dozen others in those dirs.

How's that even possible?

Are you sure your directory pairs are correct?

They definitely are. I spent a lot of time confirming this, checking file sizes etc.
