- Suppose I have two directories:
-
- /u/info/General_Info
- /u/info/General_info
-
- Then, if completion-ignore-case is set, this completes to General_info.
- I think it would more useful if it stopped after the _, since here case
- is the *only* way in which the names differ.
-
- Failing that, perhaps whether Emacs folds the names to lowercase or
- uppercase should be controllable from Lisp. (In fact, the behavior
- changed between 18.52 and 18.59, which isn't exactly a bug, since which
- one you get is undefined, as far as I can tell, but it was still a
- user-visible surprise.)
