Description

Research direction

Reproduce the upload in the iOS Nextcloud app using a filename with repeated letters, such as "Hammelstrasse__.jpg", and inspect the upload filename-handling entry point. Done means uploaded files retain exactly the filename entered in the app; no logs or specific tests are provided, so add regression coverage where the existing upload tests exercise this path.
