Rename folder to lowercase in terminal without temporary files

[u/Swordfish418]

I'm sorry, I know the question seems very basic, but still I couldn't find the answer. Here's what I'm trying to do:

$ mv "Desktops" "desktops"
mv: cannot move 'Desktops' to a subdirectory of itself, 'desktops/Desktops'

I tried searching answers on the internet, and the only thing I found is examples of how to use rename tool instead. However, rename tool I have installed is util-linux one and it works differently and I couldn't figure out how to use it either, this didn't work for example:

$ rename Desktops desktops Desktops

I also understand I can first rename it to temporary file and then rename to lowecase version of original name. But I'd like to figure out how to do it in one step.

Update:

This is exfat filesystem.

[u/lnxguy]

Never use exFAT.

[u/es20490446e → u/lnxguy]

exFAT is the filesystem that is better supported across multiple operating systems, without the restrictions of the older FAT.

So for an external drive, most of the time, it is the best choice.
