Fixes dotnet/runtime#115356
Summary
This PR clarifies that
EnumerationOptions.MatchCasingapplies only to file name pattern matching and does not affect directory path resolution.On case-sensitive file systems (e.g., Linux and macOS), directory paths must match the exact casing even if
MatchCasing = CaseInsensitive.Motivation
Users may assume that
MatchCasingaffects the full path when performing searches. In reality, it only applies to file name pattern matching, which can be misleading on case-sensitive systems. This update improves documentation to reduce confusion.Changes
