Capital letters in machine name confuses Drush (and me) [#1189178]

drush dl typo3_migrate-7.x-1.x-dev
No release history was found for the requested project (typo3_migrate).

Whereas
drush dl TYPO3_migrate-7.x-1.x-dev
works.

Not sure if this is a bug. The project/module name is TYPO3_migrate.

Technically it's documented ("This short name will be used in all file and function names in your module, so it must start with a letter and by Drupal convention it must contain only lower-case letters and underscores.") but took me forever to find, and it's not your fault as it is not enforced: #1189292: Let enforce lower case names for new projects

I don't think there's really a way for you to fix it, unfortunately.

I kept the name of the project as TYPO3_migrate to follow the general TYPO3 naming convention of using upper case. Unfortunately what I did not realize was that I also kept the short name of the project in capitals which should have been in lower case. Thank you for pointing this out.

The D.O 6 to 7 upgrade team will be converting all the uppercase project/module names to lowercase. When this actually happens I will status: open this issue and assign this to msonnabaum who will take care of lowercasing project info within drush. 3hr
