Summary

Fixes #14013.

On case-insensitive filesystems (Windows, macOS), starting astro dev from a working directory whose case differs from the actual filesystem case (e.g. d:\dev\app vs D:\dev\app) causes styles to be stripped from Astro components.

Root Cause

normalizeFilename in vite-plugin-utils/index.ts uses commonAncestorPath to decide whether an absolute path lives inside the project root. commonAncestorPath performs a case-sensitive string comparison. When the CWD (root) and the Vite-resolved module path (filename) disagree on case, the check fails and the path is incorrectly rewritten — producing a path that misses the compile-metadata cache and causes the virtual style module to be generated with no styles.

Fix

A small helper isPathInRoot is introduced. It first attempts an exact (fast) match via commonAncestorPath. If that fails, it retries with both paths lower-cased, matching the semantics of case-insensitive filesystems. The change is limited to this one fallback; it does not alter any other behaviour and has no performance impact on correct (same-case) paths.

function isPathInRoot(filename: string, rootPath: string) {
  return (
    commonAncestorPath(filename, rootPath) ||
    commonAncestorPath(filename.toLowerCase(), rootPath.toLowerCase())
  );
}

Tests

Added a unit test in test/units/vite-plugin-utils/normalize-filename.test.ts that directly reproduces the issue: normalizeFilename is called with a filename whose case differs from the root URL, and the function should return the original filename unchanged (i.e. not rewrite it onto the root).


This fix was contributed with AI assistance by SwarmFix (sulphur-swarm).
