vim + CtrlP plugin - case insensitive search?

Question

does anybody know how to perform a case insensitive file search with vim's plugin CtrlP? I can't seem to find that in the instructions anywhere. Ideally it would replace the standard CTRL+P shortcut.

Thank you!

The file search relies on the match function in VIM. To make the search case insensitive, simply issue the following command:

:set ignorecase

If you want this to be the default behaviour, you can add the command to your .vimrc file.
