+
+If set to 1, the NERDTree will interact with the file system in a case-sensitive
+manner.
+
+If set to 2, the NERDTree assumes its case sensitivity from the OS it is
+running on. It Will default to case-insensitive on Windows and macOS
+machines and case-sensitive on everything else. Since it's not a foolproof
+way of detection, NERDTree won't proceed with any write actions when
+the destination is ambiguous.
+
+Setting it to 3 will perform just like 2, but without suppressing write
+actions.
