+=========
+
+libsmbclient will now treat file names case-sensitive by default if the filesystem
+we are connecting to supports case sensitivity. This change of behavior is
+considered a bug fix, as it was previously possible to accidentally overwrite a
+file that had the same case-insensitive name but a different case-sensitive name
+as a previously-existing file, while creating a new file.
+
+If it is not possible to detect if the filesystem supports case sensitivity,
+the user-specified option value will be used.
